Freedom Lyrics

Freedom is a destination

I'll probably never reach

It's far away, exotic

like a tropical beach

But I'm not wasting my time

On plans that never come

I'd rather life be gritty

Between my hand and thumb

She said

Freedom is a state of mind

Where you can always go

Freedom is a gem to find

You gotta take it slow

It's yours to grab without a care

Those ropes are wearing thin

And any minute if you dare

Your new life will begin

I said

You say that it's in my reach

But why's my life so grim?

I work I toil overtime

The speed has trapped me in

My bubble's getting tighter

Any moment it will burst

And leave me in its wreckage

It's for freedom that I thirst

She said

Summertime is coming

I can feel it in my bones

Your longing will destroy you

Take the time to smell that rose

Beauty is around you

It beckons you to stare

Freedom from the ties that bind

Is there if you just dare.

I said

Take the wheel I beg you

And just drive me out of here

Can't get myself to do it

To go someplace that's not near no

But you can take me with you

Take me far and take me wide

Into freedom's surrender

I entrust you with my life

She said

Freedom is a state of mind

Where you can always go

Freedom is a gem to find

You gotta take it slow

It's yours to grab without a care

Those ropes are wearing thin

And any minute if you dare

Your new life will begin

I said

You say that it's in my reach

But why's my life so grim?

I work I toil overtime

The speed has trapped me in

My bubble's getting tighter

Any moment it will burst

And leave me in its wreckage

It's for freedom that I thirst

Freedom is a state of mind

Where I can always go

Freedom is a gem to find

I gotta take it slow

Beauty's around me

And it beckons me to stare

Freedom from the ties that bind

Is there if I just dare

Freedom is a state of mind

Where I can always go

Freedom is a gem to find

You gotta take it slow

It's yours to grab without a care

Those ropes are wearing thin

And any minute if you dare

Your new life will begin
