What’s That I Hear?
[Verse 1]
What's that I hear now ringing in my ears?
I've heard that sound before
What's that I hear now ringing in my ears?
I hear it more and more
It's the sound of freedom calling
Ringing up to the skies
It's the sound of the old ways a-falling
You can hear it if you try
You can hear it if you try

[Verse 2]
Oh, what's that I see now shining in my eyes?
I've seen that light before
Hey, what's that I see now shining in my eyes?
I see it more and more
It's the light of freedom calling
Shining up to the skies
It's the light of the old ways a-falling
You can see it if you try
You can see it if you try

[Verse 3]
Hey, what's that I feel now beating in my heart?
I've felt that beat before
Hey, what's that I feel now beating in my heart?
I feel it more and more
It's the rumble of freedom calling
Climbing up to the sky
It's the rumble of the old ways a falling
You can feel it if you try
You can feel it if you try
