I've seen it with my own eyes How we're gettin' otherwise Without the luxury of leavin' (of leavin') The touch and feeling of free Is intangible technically Something you've got to believe in (believe in) Connect the cause and effect One foot in front of the next This is the start of a journey (a journey) And my mind is already gone And that there're other unknowns Somehow this doesn't concern me (concern me) And you can stand right there if you want But I'm going on And I'm prepared to go it alone I'm going on To a place in the sun that's nice and warm I'm going on And I'm sure they'll have a place for you, too (Oooo-ooo-oo) Anyone that needs what they want And doesn't want what they need I want nothing to do with (to do with) And to do what I want And to do what I please Is first off my to-do list (to-do list) But every once in a while I think about her smile One of the few things I do miss (I do miss) But baby I've got to go Baby I've got to know Baby I've got to prove it (to prove it) And I'll see you when you get there But I'm going on And I'm prepared to go it alone I'm going on May my love lift you up to the place you belong I'm going on And I promise I'll be waiting for you (Oooo-ooo-oo) Freedom is the word and let me tell you a word of advice... don't follow me.
