Yesterday's world is a dream
|
Like a river that runs through my mind
|
Made of fields and the white pebble stream
|
That I knew as a child
|
Butterfly wings in the sun
|
Taught me all that I needed to see
|
For they sang, sang to my heart
|
"Oh look at me, oh look at me"
|
"Free as the wind, free as the wind"
|
"That is the way you should be"
|
|
Love was the dream of my life
|
And I gave it the best I know how
|
So it always brings tears to my eyes
|
When I think of it now
|
Gone like the butterfly days
|
And the boy that I once used to be
|
But my heart still hears a voice
|
Tellin' me "look, look and you'll see"
|
"Free as the wind, free as the wind"
|
"That is the way you should be"
|
|
There's no regret that I feel
|
For the bittersweet taste of it all
|
If you love, there's a chance you may fly
|
If you fall, well you fall
|
Rather the butterfly's life
|
To have lived for a day and been free
|
For my heart still hears that voice
|
Tellin' me "look and you'll see"
|
"Free as the wind, free as the wind"
|
"That is the way you should be"
|
"Free as the wind, free as the wind"
|
"That is the way you should be"
|

Free As The Wind
