Lyrics:

Stood with my kid on the lonely windswept beach
The winter sun was on the horizon, and we were both out of reach
She ran ahead of me looking for the next surprise.
Our souls were wet from the incoming tide.
She stopped and looked at me Lord, with tears in her eyes.
It's only a dead bird, and his soul has gone to the sky.
He's free, not like you and me.
He's free, not like you and me.

I never ever thought, that you would be so out of reach.
And the lonely times have been like poison, child.
I wish I could practice, what I preach.
Then I can release these feelings, that I've been holding deep inside.
Been missing you so much baby, the only healer can be time.
By then you will have forgotten the dead bird on the beach.
But please, don't forget your father, child, Cause he's out of reach.
Yeah, my dream is to be free, free, free, freedom for you and me.
Yeah free, free, free, freedom for you and me.

You'll hear my music in the wind,
Hearbeat like the rolling tide.
One thing, you can be sure of, my love.
Wherever you go, I'll hold your love inside.
And I take a look, don't cry,
Even if he was livin' and you had him in your hands,
You'd still have to open up and let him fly.
That bird must be free!

She stopped and looked at me Lord, with tears in her eyes.
It's only a dead bird, and his soul has gone to the sky.
He's free, not like you and me
He's free, not like you and me

Freedom
Freedom for you and me
Freedom
Freedom
Free
Freedom...
