Touch the stream an ember ray
Seize the light and don't let the falcon find you
Close your eyes and see the sight
Where the sun be free to shine

Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (now and forever)
Nobody can steal (steal the freedom)
Our life away (they will not sever)
Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (we won't surrender)
We'll be forever free to love

Cut the leash fulfilling death
Try to hide and try not to die!
Into the shadow the butterfly
Where your heart will fill to fly

Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (now and forever)
Nobody can steal (steal the freedom)
Our life away (they will not sever)
Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (we won't surrender)
We'll be forever free to love

Just believe in love, breathe in life
You'll seize the world of difference
You'll cross the line, it's endless
As if destiny has it's own mind
It's love covers mine with blindness
It's hatred cuts through the skin of shallowness
But I wont run, I will rule

Born to be free, born to be free
Nobody can steal our life away
Born to be free, born to be free
We'll be forever, be free to love

Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (now and forever)
Nobody can steal (steal the freedom)
Our life away(they will not sever)
Born to be free (free forever)
Born to be free (we won't surrender)
We'll be forever free to love

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
