Freedom lyrics
by Emmy Raver-Lampman
Oh, freedom
There's that word again
It's a feeling that you can't pin down
But it feels good, don't it, don't it
I thought so, too
There's a whole lot a little bit of freedom can do
I'm glad I get to share it with you
I knew freedom
Well, I thought I did
Like an outlaw, I chased it down
And I took it, I stole it
And I stored it away
Then, I found you
Now I see all the freedom found in lovin' a man
But, it was never part of a plan
'Cuz I'm on a mission
I made a promise, I gave my word
I can't change course, to wander and roam
I have to take this freedom and bring it back
Back home
Here's some freedom
It should help, my love
Go and spend it and spend it well
Go on
Go on your way
I think that's best for you
If I asked, you'd come with me
I know you would
You'd lay your whole life on line for me if you could
But I won't take your freedom away
And it's the hardest thing I've ever had to say
Goodbye, my love
