A Church Is Burning (Alternate Version) - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)[00:00:00]

A church is burning[00:00:13]

The flames rise higher[00:00:19]

Like hands that are praying[00:00:23]

They grow in the sky[00:00:26]

Like hands that are praying[00:00:30]

The fire ascends[00:00:31]

You can burn down my churches[00:00:33]

But I shall be free[00:00:36]

Three hooded men through the back roads did creep[00:00:42]

Torches in their hands while the village lies asleep[00:00:45]

Down to the church where just hours before[00:00:49]

Voices were singing and[00:00:53]

Hands were meeting and[00:00:55]

Saying "I won't be a slave anymore"[00:00:57]

A church is burning[00:01:02]

The flames rise higher[00:01:08]

Like hands that are praying[00:01:12]

They glow in the sky[00:01:15]

Like hands that are praying[00:01:18]

The fire ascends[00:01:20]

You can burn down my churches[00:01:22]

But I shall be free[00:01:24]

Three hooded men their hands lit the spark[00:01:30]

And they faded in the night they vanished in the dark[00:01:33]

And in the cold light of morning there was nothing that remained[00:01:37]

But the ashes of a Bible and a can of kerosene[00:01:41]

A church is burning[00:01:46]

The flames rise higher[00:01:52]

Like hands that are praying[00:01:56]

They glow in the sky[00:01:59]

Like hands that are prayin'[00:02:02]

The fire ascends[00:02:04]

You can burn down my churches[00:02:06]

But I shall be free[00:02:08]

A church is more than just timber and stone[00:02:14]

And freedom is a dark road when you're walking it alone[00:02:18]

But the future is now and it's time to take a stand[00:02:22]

So the lost bells of freedom can ring out in my land[00:02:26]

A church is burning[00:02:31]

The flames rise higher[00:02:37]

Like hands that are praying[00:02:41]

They glow in the sky[00:02:44]

Like hands that are praying[00:02:47]

The fire ascends[00:02:49]

You can burn down my churches[00:02:51]

But I shall be free[00:02:55]
