Set Me Free
I was out having dinner with a couple
Of friends of mine the other day
And when we finished eating, I walked outside
To get a little fresh air and have a smoke
When I walked
I could see in his face that there were
Was a terrible argument goin' on
And I could hear her say
And I saw a voice "set me free"
Then she said to him, she said
If you think you've enough, man
If you think our life's been rough
Why not take your love life oh, from me
Woo, and set me free
And then she said to him, she said
If you think our love's all wrong
And you feel the fire is gone
If I'm not what you'd like for me to be
Why don't you set me free? Then she said
Set me free and let me fly
Like a blue bird flying high
Release the chains that bind me, you and me
Why don't you set me free?
And as I stood there and
Listened to them argue
I said I didn't know that this was going on
Between the two of 'em because they
Seemed to be so happy
And I said to myself "I hope this
Never happens to my love affair"
Because I just couldn't stand to hear my
Woman say to me "Set me free"
'Cause I could just hear
Her right now saying, huh
Set me free and let me fly
Like a blue bird flying high
Release the chains that bind you and me
Why don't you set me free?
Hm, I don't think I can
Stand to hear her say
"Set me free, set me free set me free"
