We were free

Didn't think you would go
With the moon shining low
On a night like tonight with me
But I asked you to be
Something you couldn't be

You were free
You were free
You were free

There's a feeling so strong
That it has to be wrong
And I knew when it came to me
But I asked you to be
Something you couldn't be

You were free
You were free
You were free

Now, will we really be happier
And we probably never could be then

You're a beautiful sight
In the warm purple light
Like a dream I had failed to see
But I asked us to be
Something we couldn't be

We were free
We were free
We were free (x3)
