Freedom

...a visual self reminder of a certain spring I had the chance to live...

David Gray - Freedom

Take your eyes off me
There's nothing here to see
Trying to keep my head together
As we make our vow
Let us remember how
There's nothing good that lasts forever

Time out on the running boards, we're running
Through a world that lost its meaning
We're trying to find a way to love this running
Ain't no kind of freedom

Feel the touch of grief
You stand in disbelief
Can steal the earth from right beneath you
Falling in so far
They know just where you are
Yeah but there ain't no way to reach you

Time out on the running boards, we're running
Through a world that lost its meaning
Trying to find a way to love this running
Ain't no kind of freedom
Freedom

It's time to clean these boots
Fold up these parachutes
The word's goodbye but I can't say it
The end is close at hand
I think we understand
There ain't no use trying to delay it

Time out on the running boards, we're running
Through a world that lost its meaning
Trying to find a way to love this running
Ain't no kind of freedom
Freedom

Time out on the running boards, we're running
Through a world that lost its meaning
Trying to find a way to love this running
Ain't no kind of freedom
Freedom

Fasten on my mask
I'm bending to the task
I know this work is never finished
And if I close my eyes
I can still see you dancing
Laughing loud and undiminished

David Gray is an artist that should have received far more critical acclaim than what he did during his career. His depth of talent is simply ridiculous; there are very few Gray songs I don't like. Every single one tells a new story and makes you feel good deep inside. This song in particular is beautiful and perfect for reflection. I also really adore 'Lately' and 'Flame turns blue' which is just epic. Come back David, there are many of us who miss what 'real' music and talent is....

@rezaq1 Thank you for your comment. I've always said that David Gray is the Bob Dylan of our generation, please feel free to check out my channel, I got other videos with David's music with the songs: 'Kathleen', 'The other side', 'Alibi', 'Dissapearing World', and 'Nightblindness'. :)

I prefer the acoustic stuff, but this is also a very good song that I remember, from when I was a little ankle-snapper :) My dad listened to A New Day At Midnight a lot. Thanks for upload :)
