YOU’RE GONNA BE FREE
By Patricia T. Bishop & Buddy Trotter
Copyright 2005

He’s locked up your life for too many years
The vows that he made were never sincere
The love he professed was only for show
Telling him goodbye is the only way to know

Refrain : That you’re gonna be free, that you’re gonna be free

You tried and you tried to make it all work
He swore and he swore to clean up his dirt
The more you forgave, the weaker he grew
Draining any hope that he’d ever be true

Refrain: Oh, you wanna be free; oh, you wanna be free

Chorus
Free as bird to live the life you wanna live
Free as a child to give the love you wanna give
Free to dream your dreams
Oh, you wanna be free (last chorus) Oh, you’re gonna be free

Bridge
Sometimes it takes a while to learn
When it’s time to move on
And when you do, follow through
All your troubles will be gone

Refrain: And you’re gonna be free; and you’re gonna be free

Repeat Chorus

Tag
One day you’re gonna be free
To let your heart believe in me
