A letra:
Some
people spend their time just runnin' round in circles
Always
chasing some exotic bird
I prefer to spend some time just
listening for that special something
That I've never ever heard
I
like a new song to sing, another show or somewhere entirely different
to be
But baby you make me feel so free
And so I yearn for
mistress calling me
That's the muse, that's the muse
But we
only burn up with that passion
When there's absolutely nothing
left to lose
I make it to spring and there's no bed of roses
Just
more hard work and bad company
But baby you make me feel so
free
I heard them say that you can have your cake and eat
it
But all I wanted was one free lunch
How can I eat it when
the man that's next to me, he grabbed it
Lord, he beat me to the
punch
How can I even talk about freedom
When you know it's
sweet mystery
But baby I wanna say that you make me feel so
free
I'm gonna lay my cards just right down on the table
And
spin the wheel and roll the dice
And whatever way it comes out
And
whatever way it turns out
Well you know that's the price
Well
I'll order again there's no need to explain
I just need somewhere
to dump all my negativity
But baby you make me feel so
free
What ya say what you say
What you say what you say
what you say
Say it say it say it say it again
You make me
feel so free.
So doggone free
