The sun is setting on my lonely heart In this cheap motel What I though would be brand new start Is just a prison cell
Independence was calling my name Screamin’ in the wind Sayin’, son you need a change But now these walls are closin’ in
‘Cause freedom’s just a prison For a fool like me Chains around my heart Ain’t liberty You left me standin’ tall But now I’m beggin’ on my knees
You’ve still got me (ooh, still got me) So baby, unlock me (ooh, unlock me) From this freedom
My soul is burning for that sweet release Where only moonlight can find us Hey, I miss your kiss, I miss you holding me And all the ties that used to bid us
Freedom’s just a prison For a fool like me Chains around my heart Ain’t liberty You left me standin’ tall But now I’m beggin’ on my knees
You’ve still got me (ooh, still got me) So baby, unlock me (ooh, unlock me) From this freedom
Yeah! You’ve still got me (you’ve still got me) So baby, unlock me (ooh, unlock me) From this freedom (freedom)
I can’t take this freedom (freedom) No more freedom (freedom)
