Grey DeLisle - Free lyrics

We made a deal then, spring '94 Pounding on always crying at the door Running with strangers, blaming the time Chasing down freedom til it was mine Your picture's sleeping faced down beside me Your memory's all that treats me kindly The hounds are howling calling you home A song that's whispering he might not be alone I'm free to use the other half of our bed I've slept there since the day you said goodbye I'm free to do the things I thought I wanted to So how come all I want to do is die I'm so lonesome without you near me Somewhere you're dreaming you can hear me My heart was dead wrong for ever leaving I've gotta be strong and keep believing I'm free to cry about you every night Free to dance with someone I don't love and let him hold me tight I'm free to hate myself for acting like a fool Free to have the time of my life here without you I'm free to cry about you every night Free to dance with someone I don't love and let him hold me tight I'm free to hope and pray that you'll come back to me I will wait for you but until then I'm free
