Alabama Lyrics

Alabama Alabama In the year 63 we heard a distant cry

Raging madness Helpless sadness And a voice choked with dismay Asking why

We stopped breathing We were listening And the walls they resonate With deep silence forever Alabama

Someone joined in Started singing With his fingers Sliding over his instrument

Took the grief in With humility At the sound of his horn The room fell silent He was breathing We were listening And the walls they resonate With deep silence forever Alabama
Whispered sighs in Broken phrases Stretching out The warming blanket of compassion

Wisps of scales in Broken melodies Sounds that rouse The minds of a new generation

And we're breathing And we're listening And the music lingers on In deep silence forever Alabama
