Freedom

Like a bird on the wing—like a child on a swing
I have tried in my life to be free

My apologies to you for though I did try to be true
the memories they would not leave

If I have been unkind to you then I accept it to be true
and the memories they would not leave

There are different ways to be true
Oh— I take nothing away from you

But your truth did not help me
and my truth did not help you
