Be Free

What about the roses

The ones I used to send to you

And what about the promises baby

Where we'd be goin' and what we'd do

And how about the babies

You were gonna have with me

When we gonna stand up and just be

When we gonna stand up and be free

How about those strangers over there

The ones sleeping back to back in the same bed again

(They're) both wishing they could be anywhere else

(They're) both wishing they could start all over again yeah

And how about the lonely people

I'm talking 'bout you and me

When we gonna stand up and just be

When we gonna stand up and be free

It's a long long road to follow though

Your heart will tell you where to go

Baby, I'm still waiting and your so very far away

I'm out here on my island surrounded by the sea

Baby who knows where the time goes

And who knows when we'll ever be free

And what about the winner

The one who leaves you alone for weeks at a time

Your light is growing dimmer baby

And the things you need his money won't buy

And how about the lonely people

I'm talking 'bout you and me

When we gonna stand up and be free

When we gonna stand up and just be

When we gonna stand up and be free

You and me babe

Stand up and be free

Stand up and be free

Talking 'bout you and me

Stand up and be free
