Well I heard the bells of freedom once As I was coming down the road Coming down the road And I followed that echo wherever it would go As I was coming down the road But there always seemed to be trouble in my path I found my hands tied behind my back      As I was coming down the road Coming down the road    Well I heard the truth call my name As I was coming down the road Coming down the road And I followed that voice to the valley below As I was coming down the road And it took me down a path where I was lost all the time I found some truth but it could never be mine As I was coming down the road Coming down the road    And I saw myself for a second as I really am As I was coming down the road And I had to look away in disbelief I suppose As I was coming down the road I caught a glimpse of myself as others see me And I wasnt the fella that I thought I’d be As I was coming down the road Coming down the road I saw you out my window As you was walking alone Coming down the road And I raised my hand as if to say hello As I was coming down the road But you didn’t wave back You just walked on by Alone by yourself Till the day you die And I guess the truth and freedom before us all lies Somewhere down the road Somewhere down the road
