On the Road to Freedom Lyrics
I`m on the road to freedom
On the road to love
Yonder can you see themWho they`re thinking of
I met a rich man on the road
He told me where to go
To get my hands upon some gold
But I still answered no
`Cause freedom waits for me ahead
Your gold will slow me down
I smiled as I walked on my way
And left him with a frown
I met an old man on the road
His eyes were clear and wise
Can you direct me on my way
To where the answer lies
I`m looking for the road to freedom
So I can be free
He said keep thinking as you walk
And one day you will see
I`m on the road to freedom
On the road to truth
Yonder can you see them
Wasting precious youth
I thought as I walked down the road
Of what the man had said

It seems to me that what he meant
Is freedom`s in your head
The road I walk along is time
It`s measured out in hours
And now I need not rush along
I stop to see the flowers
Stop to smell the flowers
