I ate a hamburger in Hamburg and a hot-dog in Berlin
|
And when I didn't eat at all, my bones got very thin
|
Ate sushi in a sushi bar in Tokyo, Japan
|
I've dined in all my travellings to many different lands
|
|
I've drank in English pubs and I have eaten French cuisine
|
I even ate escargots, man, and that was quite a scene...
|
I've eaten many kinds of foods in many different dives
|
And girl, the way you walk I'd like to eat you alive...
|
|
What can you do?
|
What can you say?
|
How do you feel when you're lonely?
|
|
Maybe in time
|
You'll certainly find
|
You've been living blind
|
|
You've got to be free - yeah
|
You've got to be free - yeah
|
Whoaaa - yeah-yeah
|
|
I always lose my memory but I never lose my way
|
And half the time I'm blind but I can see the light of day
|
I never look too far ahead for what's already there
|
Maybe all I need to set me free is tell you that I care
|
|
I used to wander in the night to see what I could find
|
But by the time the sunrise came, the night had made me blind
|
It wasn't 'till I'd hit the top that I had hit my bottom
|
You cannot set your heartaches free 'till first of all you've got 'em

You've got to be free - whoaaaa - yeah yeah (what do you say?)
