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 callin' 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 callin' 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 callin' 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
The way it used to be
You were one of a million people
I gave to you, my own, liberty
Now I clearly see
How you loved me whenever you wanted
But, more that that, you loved to be free
And it's callin' me back to you
I must be free
Break these chains
In the name of
Liberty
Oh, liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Oh, liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
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
I'll try to let it be
I know anything can happen
When it comes to liberty
And it's callin' me back to you
I must be free
Break these chains
In the name of
Liberty
Oh, liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Oh, liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
When you're no longer free
When you're tied around somebody's finger
You'll think about what you said to me
And it's callin' me back to you
I must be free
Break these chains
In the name of
Liberty
Oh, liberty
I wish that you would take it back from me
Oh, liberty
You'll never know how much it means to me
