Three horses greazing out my window brown black and white they stand
rolling pastures they can wander free and easy is their land
Don't ever take away my freedom,don't ever take it away
I must cherish and keep that one part of my lives
and the rest we're gonna find one of these days
one of these days
I've always thought that I've seen in my own lifetime
an end into poverty injustice and the wars
but now I've learned to that job it's gonna take a long, long time
so there's one thing that must endure
(chorus)
When I'm old I am thinking over this whole life that I have lived
if there is one final wish left to me, I will pray for the children
yet to be born and I will pray that they will always live free
(chorus)
There is a time for the singing and the sunshine
There is a time for the thunder and the rain
There's a time for the changing all the seasons my friends
but there is one thing we must never ever change
(chorus)(3x)
