Free
Words & Music by Brenda Layne
First time you came to my apartment
You said, “Hello, it’s a new chapter in my life”
Now I see the book was way too heavy
Before you even met me
And your poet’s soul was starved for something light
You saw it shinin’ through my eyes
You let me get to know the man you are
Beautiful and sweet, lost and deep
Imprisoned by a fear you can’t be loved
But if you want to be free
I believe you can be darlin’
And if you want to be free with me
Feel free to free me from this aching heart
The moon is outside my apartment
Calling both our names
Come on come out make love and play
Love can liberate us, strengthen, heal and save us
From wandering off the path we know is right
Put the past behind and break the chains inside
that bind our spirits longing for the sky
You’ve gotta choice to hear my voice
Callin’ you to live a finer life
So if you want to be free
I believe you can be darlin’
And if you want to be free with me
Feel free to free me from this aching heart
This is your chance to drive away
Those demons holding you at bay
Cast guilt and sorrow from your heart
Let my love in…and we both win
I’m standing outside my apartment
Waitin’ for your Harley to drive up
’cause I wanna ride with you all summer
There are the stars for us to make love under
Let’s not waste them even one more night
Because I want to be free
I believe we can be darlin’
And if you want to be free with me
Feel free to free me from this aching heart
Feel free to free me from this aching heart
