Oh I know they say someday time will show me |
|
How to be so cool someday but what about right now |
|
Please someone tell me what do I do while I'm waiting |
|
Waiting to be so cool--someday |
|
I know I'm not alone you know just how I feel |
|
We both know the rules but who really knows |
|
How to play this game? |
|
No one will always win good losers hide the pain |
|
They say everything's fine |
|
No one will hear them complain |
|
But behind those smiles, so much purple rain |
|
It's a wonder anybody ever comes out sane but they do |
|
And freedom it's all up to you |
|
When you're by yourself you get that silent noise |
|
Inside your mind all the party boys trying to fill up |
|
All the empty holes don't let one be her soul |
|
Freedom now you're on your own |
|
Freedom or does it really mean you're just all alone |
|
Freedom either way it's gonna take you home |
|
It just takes you by the hand and says |
|
Now it's time to grow |
|
So my friend you're gonna be alright |
|
Seems like it's all uphill |
|
But then that's the only way to get high |
|
Someday your soul is gonna fly |
|
But don't look back 'cause that's a waste of time |
|
And right now's the time for you to look inside |
|
And you'll see love--love has never gone away |
|
Freedom I've been standing still so long |
|
Freedom I almost forgot you had a song |
|
Freedom shine your light and let us begin |
|
Just take me in our arms I wanna be free again |
