When he was only five years old
His father told him of his dream
Of freedom, hope and cities paved with gold
They left the life they knew behind
Soon they saw the shoreline
Of America rising from the sea
In the new world, their new home
Had a view of the Statue of Liberty
Keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive
Watch over me
Lady Liberty
My mother grew up on a farm
In northern Idaho
Her father told her of his dream
That a working man could make the wheat fields grow
When the chores were done at night
She studied by the candlelight
To learn about her country's history
From around the world, her people came
Drawn by the light of justice and liberty
Keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive
Watch over me
Lady Liberty
I live in California now
With a family of my own
I tell my children of my dream
To reach out and discover worlds unknown
Someday we're going to take a trip
Descendants of the immigrants
Fly through the sky from sea to shining sea
To stand where so many dreamed their dreams
Beside the Statue of Liberty
Keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive
Watch over me
Lady Liberty
Keep your light held high
Won't you keep the dream alive?
I need you to watch over me
Lady Liberty
Oh, keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive
Watch over me, over me
Lady Liberty
Keep your light held high, keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive, won't you keep the dream alive?
Watch over me, watch over me, watch over me
Lady Liberty
Keep your light held high, keep your light held high
Keep the dream alive, keep the dream alive
Watch over me
Lady Liberty
My grandfather got on a boat When he was only five years old His father told him of his dream Of freedom, hope and cities paved with gold They left the life they knew behind Soon they saw the shoreline Of America rising from the sea In the new world, their new home Had a view of the Statue of Liberty Keep your light held high Keep the dream alive Watch over me Lady Liberty My mother grew up on a farm In northern Idaho Her father told her of his dream That a working man could make the wheat fields grow When the chores were done at night She studied by the candlelight To learn about her country's history From around the world, her people came Drawn by the light of justice and liberty Keep your light held high Keep the dream alive Watch over me Lady Liberty I live in California now With a family of my own I tell my children of my dream To reach out and discover worlds unknown Someday we're going to take a trip Descendants of the immigrants Fly through the sky from sea to shining sea To stand where so many dreamed their dreams Beside the Statue of Liberty Keep your light held high Keep the dream alive Watch over me Lady Liberty Keep your light held high Won't you keep the dream alive? I need you to watch over me Lady Liberty Oh, keep your light held high Keep the dream alive Watch over me, over me Lady Liberty Keep your light held high, keep your light held high Keep the dream alive, won't you keep the dream alive? Watch over me, watch over me, watch over me Lady Liberty Keep your light held high, keep your light held high Keep the dream alive, keep the dream alive Watch over me Lady Liberty Explain Request ×
