Θα συνεχίσουμε παλαιομοδίτικα, μ’ ένα ακόμα ”uncool” τραγούδι, αυτή τη φορά των Moody Blues, πρωτοπόρων του progressive rock, από το άλμπουμ τους Seventh Sojourn. Σύνθεση του οργανίστα τους, Mike Pinder.

We will continue in old-fashioned manner, with another “uncool” song, this time by progressive rock pioneers The Moody Blues, from their album Seventh Sojourn. Written by their keyboard player, Mike Pinder.

❝ Time quickly passes by
If only we could talk again
Someday, I hope I’ll see you smiling
When you’re a free man again
High on a mountain side
We laughed and talked of things to come
Someway, I know I’ll see you shining
When we’re all free men again
You left your country for peace of mind
And something tells me you’re doin’ alright
How are the children and Rosemary?
I long to see you and be in your company
Someday, I hope I’ll see you smiling
When you’re a free man again
I often wonder why
Our world has gone so far astray
Someway, I know I’ll see you shining
When we’re all free men again
You gave love freely to those with tears
Your eyes were sad when you-, you saw the need
You know that love lasts for eternity
Let’s be God’s children and live in perfect peace
Peace, perfect peace
Perfect peace
Peace
Someway, I know I’ll see you shining
When you’re a free man
When we’re all free men again, yeah
When you’re a free man ❞

Enjoy!
