FREE AGAIN






Well I'm free again to do what I want again

Free again to sing my songs again

Free again to end my longing

To be out on my own again



Well I made a mistake and thought I could settle down

Thought I could take a leash on my neck around

But now I'm gonna make my way to a better town

My feet are back on the ground



Well I'm free again to do what I want again

Free again to sing my songs again

Free again to end my longing

To be out on my own again
