Free as a Bird

it's three steps to the window
and three steps to the wall
the leaking tap is singing
a song about your last call
some ants are fighting over
three crumbs of yesterday
in this small room in this big town
where I've got nothing left to say
except: some parts of me
just won't be locked away

I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
at first I really meant to stay but life had planned another way
and now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want

so I shake my sleepy legs
drinking from your favorite cup
in the afternoon I chat
with the cat behind the wall
when I picture your face
I almost feel okay
you shaped me by the piece
in your hands I was clay

and now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
at first I really meant to stay but life had planned another way
and now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want

when I go up and down
in this little cage of mine
I wonder if I'm going to see you again
outside I can see leaves fall
so it's been a year by now
still I am thankful for what we shared

now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
yeah I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
at first I really meant to stay but life had planned another way
I had thought we'd last forever and one day
and now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
at first I really meant to stay but life had planned another way
but now I'm free as a bird and I'm going to do what I want
well I'm free as a bird and I don't know what I want
