Lyrics

If freedom comes my way one day
I'll run away 'cause I can't stay here
For sure

I've heard that train for years on end
So distant carried by the wind
It's another door . . .

It's autumn now the leaves they fall
And that's not all it's gonna be
Another cold one


And this mountain ain't the world you know
So close the door you're on your own...

Chorus:

And Carolina I don't want to leave you
We've been through this before
But the north wind follows
Old man time calls me so
I'm walking out the door

You're so young and I'm so old
And the story's told and it's turning cold
Can you forgive me?

One day you'll wake to a sunny day
And find yourself and find your way
Forgive me...

Chorus:

If freedom comes my way one day...
