You turned away from me With the sun on your face Looking out over the sea Like you saw something there As if that was a place that you wanted to be Free as a bird Or chained to the sky It didn't matter to you somehow Free as a bird Or chained to the sky It didn't matter to you anyhow But you sang It didn't matter to you somehow Free as a bird or chained to the sky It didn't matter to you somehow I feel so left alone I just don't know what to think about you Part of me loves you like I always did love you And that part knows you loved me too You gave me lots of reasons to doubt you You grew up so furiously fast I guess you just wanted to become someone new And God knows that's what I'm still trying to do Free as a bird Or chained to the sky It didn't matter to you somehow Free as a bird Or chained to the sky It didn't matter to you anyhow But you sang every song Like something was terribly wrong I never knew what was going on Free as a bird Or chained to the sky Free as a bird Or chained to the sky Free as a bird Or chained to the sky Free as a bird Or chained to the sky
