Race To Freedom
This race to freedom starts and ends with glee
Our feelings for each other staunch and keen
We cycle cross the prairie fancy free
Our goal to reach the port of Aberdeen
Our feelings for each other staunch and keen
No barriers appear to slow our flight
Our goal to reach the port of Aberdeen
With thund'ring hearts we race on through the night
No barriers appear to slow our flight
Unshackled joy as we behold the reef
With thund'ring hearts we race on through the night
The ship in port is ours, is our belief
Unshackled joy as we behold the reef
With tears of joy we know our goal is reached
The ship in port is ours, is our belief
The water from our tears flows to the beach
With tears of joy we know our goal is reached
Some day we'll tell our children of this tale
The water from our tears flows to the beach
We board the launch, make ready to set sail
Some day we'll tell our children of this tale
The day we fled from tyranny and fear
We board the launch, make ready to set sail
Was desp'rate times that brought our family here
The day we fled from tyranny and fear
Imprinting it upon our mem'ries while
Was desp'rate times that brought our family here
To live in peace on this most glorious isle
Imprinting it upon our mem'ries while
We cycle cross the prairie fancy free
To live in peace on this most glorious isle
This race to freedom starts and ends with glee
