33 Sarah's Song

They can forbid nearly everything
But they can't forbid me to think
And they can't forbid my tears to flow
And they can't shut my mouth when I sing.
They can forbid nearly everything
But they can't forbid me to think
And they can't forbid the flowers to grow
And they can't shut my mouth when I sing.
They can forbid nearly everything
But they can't forbid me to think
And they can't forbid the sun to shine
And they can't shut my mouth when I sing.

I kan forbyde mig næsten alt
Men aldrig forbyde min sang
Tårene strømmer alligevel
og tankerne er sat i gang]
