Hank, I love you so
But there's something that you should know
When I dream I dream of more than just you
You've been a mountain of honest love, pure and true
But I am a creature that must take the air

And I don't want to leave
But please listen to me:
I've got to be free
Why does that mean
We can't share our loves?

Yes, it's sad, I know
But if I can leave, I will go
That is my rule of love and it stays true
No matter how fine
In the back of my mind
There is a hidden love that keeps me warm

And what else is life for
Oh but I don't want to leave
Just to be free
Why does it mean
We can't share our loves?
