Lyrics Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand

Lady Liberty

Lady Liberty

Lift your lamp of hope a little higher

Burn that flame of freedom just a little brighter, please

For all the world to see and still believe

Oh, Lady Liberty

Show us how to stand and feel a little prouder

As the anthem plays let's sing

And raise our voices even louder

Since the real danger lies in the sound of silence

Lady Liberty

I see you rise above the crashing waves

Bearing witness to our darkest days

Like that terrible September

When we stopped and cried together

Remember?

Lady Liberty

Give me your tired and your poor

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore

Send these, the homeless, the tempers tossed to me, to me

So lift your lamp and lead us through the golden door

Tell the whole damn universe there's a room for all of us and more

Forever

Lady Liberty, my country 'tis of thee

Lady Liberty, for all the world to see

Please, Lady Liberty
