[Verse 1]
Anytime you call me back
I'll come running, it's true
Know you got me down like clockwork, honey
Give me the go-ahead to

Remember when we were just children
Laid up all afternoon
Wanna be free like we once were, honey
Want it even now, don't you?

[Chorus]
Wanna be free like we once were
Want it even now, don't you?
Wanna be free like we once were, honey
But I can't cut loose

[Verse 2]
And I know I've got a faraway dream
Runs high up above our heads
And I wanna be a grounded woman for you, honey
But it takes me up there instead

So I'd set 'em up, [all of my rules?]
'Cause I wanna do right, not wrong
Wanna be free like we once were, honey
Them two sides don't get along
[Chorus]
Wanna be free like we once were
Want it even now, don't you?
Wanna be free like we once were, honey
But I can't cut loose

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Wanna be free like we once were
Want it even now, don't you?
Wanna be free like we once were, honey
But I can't cut loose
No I can't cut loose
