letra de the bottle is empty - ruurd woltring

[verse 1]
the liberators stand at the door, can’t wait no more
friesland waits, hope rising from the floor
parachutes fall like rain in the night
french and belgian troops ready for the fight
the trains are coming, soldiers on the line
but the sabotage sparks in the nick of time
rails unhooked, bridges turned to dust
frisian hands defying with courage and trust
canadians push from the southern side
with hope on our backs, we hold on and ride

[chorus 1]
the bottle is empty, the battle is near
freedom is coming, we’re shaking our fеar
through darkness and death, the еnd’s in sight
hold on, my friend, we’ll make it through the night

[verse 2]
april 9th, the day we won’t forget
in the shadows of dronrijp, where the rails were set
trees fell down, blocked the german road
the roar of freedom in every secret code
but the cost was high, six lives were lost
executed in chaos, no time to pause
yet the parachutes kept landing, cutting through the wire
with every step they took, the flame burned higher
the radio whispered, “the bottle is dry,”
friesland knew, the time was nigh
[chorus 2]
the bottle is empty, the battle is near
freedom is calling, we shed our last tear
the tanks are rolling, the dawn’s almost bright
together we rise, hold steady in the fight

[bridge]
can you feel it in the air tonight?
the sound of marching, the end of the flight
we’ve waited so long, through sorrow and pain
but now we know freedom’s in the rain

[verse 3]
the tanks roll in past the courthouse wall
many years since, we still recall
adri heard the rumors, couldn’t be sure
but the skies filled with planes, bombs starting to roar
zutphen, meppel, maybe drachten too
hope spread wide, like the morning dew
the germans retreat, the end’s drawing near
we stand together, nothing left to fear
through some years of darkness, now we can see
friesland’s free, and so are we

[chorus 1]
the bottle is empty, the battle is near
freedom is coming, we’re shaking our fear
through darkness and death, the end’s in sight
hold on, my friend, we’ll make it through the night
[chorus 2]
the bottle is empty, the battle is near
freedom is calling, we shed our last tear
the tanks are rolling, the dawn’s almost bright
together we rise, hold steady in the fight
