You Are Free

Was it impeccable timing or a will to explore?
I don't know where the line is
Don't know anymore
Nowadays I don't have thoughts of my own
I'm afraid we won't know when it's time to move on, will we?

I don't know if you're really that broken inside
But you look quite exactly how you did the night
We met on this sidewalk When you followed me home
When you cried out your heart until the break of dawn

You were free then as you are free now

And I'm sorry for sayin' I'd never love you
Back then it did seem like the right thing to do
Didn't know youd believe me you my gullible one
Didn't have it in me to be the first one to run

Now I'm stuck in this place, the worst city on earth
How can you keep such a straight face? It's almost too funny to hurt
How dare you walk up in here like it's your God-given right
I ain't saying I will I'm just saying I might lose it, baby

When the morning came I was on my knees
But I am weightless now Like a summer breeze
Guess it wasn't something that I really needed

You were never here at least not like that
You acted out of fearAnd I ain't going back
To the place I used to live in when I met you
