It Set Me Free (Live)

As I lend a morning stare into the mirror Wash some of yesterday from my face Think about a time when life was cleaner I was so certain of my place Thought I had a corner on the light Oh, I could see everything all right And out from the shadows something grabbed me and it held on tight Made me watch while my youth fell out of sight But it set me free, it set me free Nothing's the way it was supposed to be But it set me free, oh how it set me free It set my sail out on the open sea Used to sit and listen to an old man speak Heard only half of what he had to say Now his words ring out as they fall in front of me Somehow I knew it might work work out this way He said there are no answers Life is fair only to a few So if you get what you need you're a winner Remember my boy we're all just passing through And it set me free, it set me free Nothing's the way it was supposed to be But it set me free, oh how it set me free It set my sail out on the open sea Instrumental So I laugh a joke now, maybe lift a smile And play with this thought for a little while And I'll sit waiting behind this lock and key Until that day when they set me free Instrumental Thank you, thank you very much E'lissa Jones on violin Dave Edwards on the upright bass
