It's not just another word for nothing left to lose...

lyrics

IF I WAS FREE
©2008 Fur Dixon, Fur Dixon Publishing, BMI. Ric Taylor, Space Canoe Music, ASCAP.

If I was free,
Would I be standing here today,
Or would I just blow away,
Nothing left to hold me down,

If I was free,
Would life lay heavy down on me,
The way it does most every day,
Such a sorry price to pay

I wanna run,
Back to my old home when I was young,
Some rope a plank, a tall oak tree,
Bare feet, upside down, the breeze,

If I was free, free

A dreamer can lose, his grip and float away
And if I go too far –will you call me back again?

If I was free,
I would rise up on the dawn,
I could let bygones be gone,
Walk through any open door,

If I was free,
I could face a world that frightens me,
And I wouldn’t look away,
When my heart just had to break

A dreamer can lose, his grip and float away
And if I go too far –will you call me back again?

If I was free
Would you keep the porch light on for me,
When I’m out wandering alone
Would you welcome me back home?
