I can't believe it's all been lost
Love was deceived and I've been tossed
All this time playing with my future
Trouble has come and I'm the loser

There was the time that I believed in you
There was the time you said you cared
But honey, you lied
Your actions been proving it
Don't apologize
I just want my freedom

Freedom to say no more
Freedom to shut the door
Freedom not to forget all the pain
Baby, I want freedom

Freedom to love again
Freedom to find romance
Freedom to walk with my someone to treat me right
I want freedom
I just want my freedom

Yesterday's tears has come again
Tomorrow's tears are all the same
You played me well
You use imagination
And what an extra smooth operation
Who me?

There was the time that I believe promises
There was the time I wanted you
But honey, you lied
Your actions been proving it
Don't apologize
I just want my freedom

Freedom to say no more
Freedom to shut the door
Freedom not to forget all the pain
Baby, I want freedom

Freedom to love again
Freedom to find romance
Freedom to walk with my someone to treat me right
I want freedom
I just want my freedom

You said that you cared
You said that I was you're only one
You said I was your moonchild
The stars and sun
You said that I was your mountain
And I was your dream
And I was the height of your everything

Oh, you made me believe
But I was just set up
You broke down my defenses
And you took all my love

Now what am I to do?
My heart's invested in you
It's such a devastation
Aggravation
Mass confusion
I want freedom

I just want my freedom

Freedom to say no more
Freedom to shut the door
Freedom not to forget all the pain
Baby, I want freedom

Freedom to love again
Freedom to find romance
Freedom to walk with my someone to treat me right
I want freedom
I just want my freedom

You said that you cared
You said that I was your only one
You said I was your moonchild
The stars and sun

You said that I was your mountain
And I was your dream
And I was the height of your everything
Now what am I to do?

My heart's invested in you
It's such a devastation
Aggravation
Mass confusion
I want freedom
I just want my freedom

Freedom to say no more
Freedom to shut the door
Freedom not to forget all the pain
Baby, I want freedom

Freedom to love again
Freedom to find romance
Freedom to walk with my someone to treat me right
I want freedom
I just want my freedom
