Lyrics Chris De Burgh – Leather On My Shoes

I’ve got leather on my shoes,
And I’ve got a dream to live,
There is nothing left to lose,
So I’m going,

No-one’s coming to my door,
And all my friends have gone,
There’s no work here anymore,
It’s deserted,
And though I know I hate to leave,
From this land that I love,
There’s a new tomorrow waiting,
Yes it’s shining on the freedom road,
On the freedom road;

Oh sometimes it’s going to be lonely,
Sometimes it will be sad,
But I’ve got to keep on going,
Until I hold that promised land,
In the palm of my hand;

Nothing ventured, nothing gained or won,
Without a hard fight,
We would never reach the sun,
Without trying,
And when we’re a million miles from home,
Out in the starry night,
We will see we’re not alone,
In the heavens, out on freedom road,

Out on freedom road… out on freedom road.
