THE SCENT OF FREEDOM Lyrics

I remember the scent of April

When I was just a kid

Springtime came and made me blossom

Like the rain does to the seed

I remember mama's calling

I had to feed chickens round our home

Life was simple, farm work tiring

But at the table we were one

Someone said we're East of Eden

Time stands still here as in hell

But time can't sleep and started ticking

The scent of freedom rang the bell

The nights are quieter there in the country

But my dreams ran faster than the days

I was younger, I was hungry

I would have walked life's other ways

And I left the East of Eden

Left my mama and my home

Yeah I traded the warmth of April

For the scent of freedom

I remember mama's crying

She knew I wouldn't see her anymore

She looked like her life had been stolen

By the scent of freedom

Freedom

Freedom

Means nothing without Love

I'm coming home, mama

Coming home

Now I long for the East of Eden

How I miss the place I belong

Now I know that the warmth of April

Is the scent of freedom

Now I long for the East of Eden

How I miss her embrace where I belong

Now I know that the warmth of April

Is the scent of freedom

Is the scent of my freedom
