I can see the rain,
Come into my room again.
Broken window pane,
Now reminds me I’m alive.

Could it be right,
Givin’ up, my darlin’?
I’ll wait for you now,
To remind me why I’ve gone.

How I love to write,
Songs that have no answers.
Oh, there’s nothin’ on my mind,
That I want to let go of.

Letting it go on pretendin’,
Everything has its way of endin’.
And I’m a loner,
The way I should be.

Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
Can I be free?

Still it’s gotta rain,
Wonder when I’ll see a change in weather.
Somethin’s gettin’ tangled up again,
And I can’t find an end.

Can’t let it go on returnin’,
I’ve given everything that the harlequin boy can find.
And I’m tired of trying,
I’d rather leave than tell lies.

Set it free,
Let it free my love to fly,
Set it free.
Set it free,
Let it free my love to be,
You’ll be free.

You’ll be free my love to fly,
Free to be what I can’t face.
In love again,
Set it free.

Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.

Free,
Set it free,
Set it free my love.
