Freedom

Lyrics

I won't let you down  
I will not give you up  
Gotta have some faith in the sound  
It's the one good thing that I've got  
  
I won't let you down  
So please don't give me up  
Because I would really, really love to stick around, stick around  
  
Heaven knows I was such a young boy  
I didn't know what I wanted to be  
  
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy  
And I guess it was enough for me  
  
To win the race? A prettier face  
Brand new clothes and a big fat place  
On your rock and roll TV  
  
But today the way I play the game has got to change  
Oh yeah  
And now I'm gonna get me so happy  
  
I think there's something you should know  
I think it's time I told you so  
There's something deep inside of me  
There's someone else I've got to be  
Take back your picture in a frame  
Take back your singing in the rain  
I just hope you understand  
Somehow the clothes do not make the man  
  
All we have to do now  
Is take these lies and make them true somehow  
All we have to see  
Is that I don't belong to you  
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah  
  
[Chorus]  
(Freedom) I won't let you down  
(Freedom) I will not give you up  
(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in the sound  
(You've gotta give for what you take) it's the one good thing that I've got  
(Freedom) I won't let you down  
(Freedom) So please don't give me up  
(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around, stick around  
(You've gotta give for what you take)  
  
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy  
What a kick just my buddies and me  
  
(What a kick just my buddies and me)  
We won the race  
Got out of the place  
I went back home got a brand new face  
For the boys on M-T-V (boys on M-T-V)  
  
But today the way I play the game has got to change  
Oh yeah  
And now I'm gonna get myself happy  
  
I think there's something you should know  
I think it's time I stopped the show  
There's something deep inside of me  
There's someone I forgot to be  
Take back your picture in a frame  
Don't think that I'll be back again  
I just hope you understand  
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man  
  
All we have to do now  
Is take these lies and make them true somehow  
All we have to see  
Is that I don't belong to you  
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah  
  
(Freedom) I won't let you down  
(Freedom) I will not give you up  
(Freedom) You've gotta have some faith in the sound  
(You've gotta give for what you take) it's the one good thing that I've got  
(Freedom) I won't let you down  
(Freedom) So please don't give me up  
  
(Freedom) Because I would really really love to stick around,stick around  
(You've gotta give for what you take)  
  
Well it looks like the road to heaven  
But it feels like the road to hell  
And when you shake your ass  
They notice fast  
Some mistakes were built to last  
That's what you get  
That's what you get  
I just hope you understand sometimes the clothes do not make theman  
All we have to see now  
  
Is that I don't belong to you  
And you don't belong to me yeah yeah  
  
[Chorus]
