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
