Liberty!
Let me tell the story
The way it used to be
You were one of a million people
I gave to you my own liberty
Turnin' back these pages
Now I clearly see
How you loved me whenever you wanted
But more that that you loved to be free
There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you
But I can't go back
I must be free
Break these chains in the name of
Liberty!
I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
As I read your letters
It's there in black and white
I know you never meant to hurt me
And in my heart I know that you're right
And in this age of reason
I'll try to let it be
I know anything can happen
When it comes to liberty
There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you
But I can't go back
I must be free
Break these chains in the name of
Liberty!
I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
One day you'll remember, when you're no longer free
When you're tied around somebody's finger
You'll think about what you said to me
There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you
But I can't go back
I must be free
Break these chains in the name of
Liberty!
I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
The way it used to be
You were one of a million people
I gave to you my own liberty
Turnin' back these pages
Now I clearly see
How you loved me whenever you wanted
But more that that you loved to be free
There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you
But I can't go back
I must be free
Break these chains in the name of
Liberty!
I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
As I read your letters
It's there in black and white
I know you never meant to hurt me
And in my heart I know that you're right
And in this age of reason
I'll try to let it be
I know anything can happen
When it comes to liberty
There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you
But I can't go back
I must be free
Break these chains in the name of

I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
One day you'll remember, when you're no longer free
When you're tied around somebody's finger

Break these chains in the name of

I gave it all to you my destiny
Oh liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Liberty!
I never promised you a guarantee
Oh liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
