Free, free, set them free
Free, free, set them free
Free, free, set them free
If you need somebody
CaII my name
If you want someone
You can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to Iock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hoId onto your possession
Don ’t even think about me
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
If it ’s a mirror you want
Just Iook into my eyes
Or a whipping boy
Someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can ’t see
Or a beast in a giIded cage
That ’s aII some peopIe ever want to be
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
You can ’t controI an independent heart
Can ’t tear the one you Iove apart
Forever conditioned to beIieve that we can ’t Iive
We can ’t Iive here and be happy with Iess
So many riches
So many souIs
With everything we see that we want to possess
If you need somebody
CaII my name
If you want someone
You can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to Iock it up and throw away the key
You want to hoId onto your possession
Don ’t even think about me
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone
If you Iove somebody
If you Iove someone, set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
Set them free
