I want to be free



Feel the June sun

Beating on my back

Dance in April’s rain

Be engulfed in the spring

Not caring about a thing.

See the flowers

In full bloom

Not giving a thought

To all of my gloom



I want to be free



Ride upon stallions

Faster than time on seas of life

And cut through death

Like a knife

Live with no boundaries

No yeses or nos

But where will I go to be free?



I want to be free



Stop living to please others

And do as I please

See the wind in the willows

Stare at palm trees

Feel the ocean of peace and serenity

Carry me away

Feel fine grains of sand

Under my feet

Look at land and sea

As they come together

And meet





I want to be free



See the seven wonders

Oh the places I'll go!

Oh the things that I'll see!

I'll see Africa

The Sahel

All the jungle animals

I'll meet people like me

But not exactly like me

I'll discover

Yet another

Of Da Vinci’s many secrets

Now tell me

Can I go?

Please let me go!

…Because…



I want to be free!



And find the true meaning of life

The true meaning of strife

The secret of love

If I am loved

Break away

From this place

The cages of society

Holding me in time

I'm running in place

I'm a bird without wings

I never sing

I need my wings

I need your grip to be loosed

Your jaws to be wrenched

Away from my body

My life

All I want is to be free



I want to be free



Feel the soft wind’s hands

Stroking my hair

Run with the clouds

Across the air

Watch the stars

See the summer sun

It looks as if

I've finally won

because…

In my mind

I'm as free as I'll ever be
