I WANT TO BE FREE 

©1988 music and words by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle

Tell me 'bout the love that I once had

Tell me 'bout the things that I've done bad
Tell me 'bout the days that are so sad

I want to be free

I want to be free
 

Tell me 'bout the woman that is gone

From my world like a fadin' song
Tell me 'bout my lonely self yeah man

I know you don't understand
I know you don't understand

 

(Chorus:)

Don't you know that this winter wind
Is blowin' me down again

How will I ever stand these lonely nights without you
Don't you know that this stormy sky

Is gettin' me down again
How will I ever stand these lonely nights feelin' so blue

 

Tell me 'bout my achin' achin' heart

That tears me up and all apart
Tell me 'bout the days that never start

I want to be free

I want to be free
 

(Chorus)


So Mary Mary hear me cry

Caress my soul and answer me why
You won't be comin' to me

You won't be comin' to me
You won't be comin' to me
