Freedom, No Cash Value
©1991 Dakota Sid Clifford


        What is the price we would pay for our freedom
        Clandestine transactions in marble lined halls
        Cannot be measured in paper and coin
        When will it be treasured by all

The value of the future is priceless
Despite what the future may cost
Forever belongs to the lifeless
To dream of the paradise lost

        What is the price we would pay for our freedom
        Clandestine transactions in marble lined halls
        Cannot be measured in paper and coin
        When will it be treasured by all

Instrumental:

The grizzly bear splashing in pure mountain water
The sound of the rain as it falls
The cry of an eagle, the coyotes howl
And the answer of echoing calls

The owl hooting low, at the eye of the moon
The wind in the old redwood tree
These are the sounds of a God given freedom
That has no cash value to me

        What is the price we would pay for our freedom
        Clandestine transactions in marble lined halls
        Cannot be measured in paper and coin
        When will it be treasured by all
