The Keeper Of The Keys Lyrics - The Hands Of Man - Chris De Burgh

I hear her voice 

She calls to me 

I know she's near me 

But I cannot see 

Through prison walls 

That come between 

Her dreams of freedom and the real world 

Where her face is never seen 

All the king's horses and all his men 

Are fearful of the power that can come from book and pen 

And all the changes there that can be found 

And far away I hear a distant sound 

It's rolling like thunder 

Oh, shout it from the highest window 

Break down every door 

And tell them you won't take it anymore 

Show that you will never spend a lifetime on your knees 

Rise up and catch the Keeper of the Keys 

Oh, what ancient words can hold her here 

But she's never heard 

By men who claim the higher ground 

It was always there for them to have and hold 

Where woman's never found 

All of the holy men who are at her door 

Are frightened that their power will be lost forevermore 

If she believes her freedom's on the way 

And still it's getting louder every day 

The sound of thunder 

Oh, shout it from the highest window 

Break down every door 

And tell them you won't take it anymore 

Show that you will never spend a lifetime on your knees 

Rise up and catch the Keeper of the Keys, rise up! 

Tell them you will never spend a lifetime on your knees 

And when you catch and kill the Keeper of the Keys 

You will be free! 

You will be free! 

You will be free! 

You will be free...
