Ode To Freedom

Ode To Freedom - ABBA

Lyrics by：Benny Andersson/Bjorn Ulvaeus

Composed by：Benny Andersson/Bjorn Ulvaeus

If I ever write my Ode to Freedom

It will be in prose that chimes with me

It would be a simple Ode to Freedom

Not pretentious but with dignity

I would like to think that freedom is

More than just a word

In grand and lofty language

Odes to Freedom often go unheard

If I ever wrote my Ode to Freedom

Being privileged and spoilt for choice

Then I fear that you would be suspicious

Of the cause to which I'd lend my voice

It's elusive and it's hard to hold

It's a fleeting thing

That's why there is no Ode to Freedom truly worth remembering

I wish someone would write an Ode to Freedom that we all could sing
