Every man has got two cities he needs to be The one he can touch and the one he can´t see The one where a stranger´s a friend Everyman has got one city of liberty For me it´s Paris, I love it
Every time I try to lose myself I seem to find these streets of surrender
You´re free baby, baby Free now and forever It´s Christmas time you can decide To forget or to remember You´re free baby, baby I didn´t come down here to fight you I came here down these streets Of love and pride to surrender The streets of surrender Of surrender
I heard the oldest story that nobody seems to know I think it was about that stranger It was youth and love and it was danger
It was winter but that warm it gets before the snow It froze my soul I´m crying, crying âbout some kid that they found Lying on a beach, born in a manger
You´re free baby, baby Free now and forever It´s Christmas time you can decide To forget or to remember You´re free baby, baby I didn´t come down here to fight you I came here down these streets Of love and pride to surrender The streets of surrender
I live in the stories that are told
In the child you chose to hold And the ones you turn away
To be free baby, baby Free now and forever This vale of tears will disappear And it´s love you will remember You´re free baby, baby I didn´t come down here to fight you I came here down these streets Of love and pride to surrender The streets of surrender The streets of surrender
