If you need somebody, call my name
|
If you want someone, you can do the same
|
If you want to keep something precious
|
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
|
If you want to hold onto your possession
|
Don't even think about me
|
|
If you love somebody, set them free
|
|
If it's a mirror you want, just look 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 gilded cage
|
That's all some people ever want to be
|
|
If you love somebody, set them free
|
|
You can't control an independent heart
|
Can't tear the one you love apart
|
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
|
We can't live here and be happy with less
|
So many riches, so many souls
|
Everything we see we want to possess
|
|
If you need somebody, call my name
|
If you want someone, you can do the same
|
If you want to keep something precious
|
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
|
If you want to hold onto your possession
|
Don't even think about me
|
|
If you love somebody, set them free
|
