Lyrics

Let me tell the story The way it used to be You were one of a million people I gave to you my own liberty Turnin' back these pages Now I clearly see How you loved me whenever you wanted But more that that you loved to be free There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you But I can't go back I must be free Break these chains in the name of Liberty! I gave it all to you my destiny Oh liberty I wish that you would take it back from me Liberty! I never promised you a guarantee Oh liberty You'll never know how much it means to me As I read your letters It's there in black and white I know you never meant to hurt me And in my heart I know that you're right And in this age of reason I'll try to let it be I know anything can happen When it comes to liberty There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you But I can't go back I must be free Break these chains in the name of Liberty! I gave it all to you my destiny Oh liberty I wish that you would take it back from me Liberty! I never promised you a guarantee Oh liberty You'll never know how much it means to me One day you'll remember, when you're no longer free When you're tied around somebody's finger You'll think about what you said to me There's a voice in my heart and it's calling me back to you But I can't go back I must be free Break these chains in the name of Liberty! I gave it all to you my destiny Oh liberty I wish that you would take it back from me Liberty! I never promised you a guarantee Oh liberty You'll never know how much it means to me
