Set Me Free
[Verse 1]
Set me free
Take these chains from my aching heart
And let me be
Set me free, yes
Wipe these tears from my weary eyes
And let me see
Why, why do I hang on your every word
I feel so hurt every time you push me aside
And every time I swallow my pride
Set me free
Break the spell that's hanging over me
Baby please, let me be
Like the rivers running to the sea
Now truthfully, love, love was so easier
A time, a place, you can't erase
All the thoughts running through my mind
Lying to me time after time
[Chorus]
Baby won't you
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
I want to be alone
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
I can't take it any longer
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
Come on take these chains, take these chains a way from me
Let me live again and again and again
[Bridge]
Every time you push me aside
And every time I swallow my pride
[Outro]
Baby won't you
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
I want to be alone
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
I can't take it any longer
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
Come on, take these chains
Come on, take these chains away from me
Take them away from me
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
I want to be alone
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
Can't take it any longer
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
Come on take these chains
Take 'em, take 'em, take 'em away from me
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
(Set me free)
