I'm free
To the man I gave my heart
I loved you from the start
I waited oh, so long
just hoping I'd belong
I thought with time
that I could make you mine
But you were another's
And I joined the others
You chained me in a box
only you had the lock
I wanted oh, so much
just to feel your touch
No, you were never there
to hear how much I care
Yet you kept me alone
as you sat upon your throne
I thought with time I could rest
but I felt beating in my chest
to rhythm you had kept
the night I wept while you slept
Yes, you strung me along
though you knew it was wrong
cause I'd sing you a song
when the other girls were gone
And as I time went by
I began to cry
for my chains, I had to hold
when my love grew old
On the day you made it clear
That I'd never be your dear
I let the chains drop
knowing my heart wouldn't stop
For all this time I'd thought
that you were all I've got
Now, in the light I see
you mean nothing to me
And I know as I walk away
that there will come a day
Where for my love you will plea
but I've already been set free
