Kings of Convenience Freedom and Its Owner song lyrics

We'll be rich in memories of all the places

We've captured without camera

We've seen the pyramids

We've seen the Louvre

We've seen Orion upside down

Total eclipses and the moonlight shadows

We've seen dolphins jumping waves

We've ski'ed the mountains and we swam in the rivers

And let the sunlight dry our skin

But freedom, freedom never greater than its owner

Freedom is the mastery of the known

Freedom, freedom never greater than its owner

No view is wider than the eye

Show a view to someone who chose to live his whole life in a cave

He'll raise his arms to protect his eyes from learning

And the blindness to which he belongs

This time it's me, it's me

Cascades of chances I'll just let them be

The unfamiliar is right below our eyes

Don't look for what we know

The unfamiliar is right below our eyes

Freedom, freedom never greater than its owner

Freedom is the mastery of the known

Freedom, freedom never greater than its owner

No view is wider than the eye
