Lyrics
If you need somebody Call my name If you want someone You can do the same If you want to keep something precious You gotta lock it up and throw away the key You wanna hold on to your possession Don't even think about me If you love somebody If you love someone If you love somebody If you love someone Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free It's a mirror you want Just look into my eyes Or a whipping boy (Or a whipping boy) Someone to despise Or a prisoner in the dark (Or a prisoner in the dark) Tied up in chains you just can't see Tied up in chains you just can't see) Or a beast in a gilded cage That's all some people ever wanna be If you love somebody If you love someone If you love somebody If you love someone Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free Set them free Free free Set them free Free free Set them free Free free You can't control an independent heart (Can't love what you can't keep) Can't tear the one you love apart (Can't love what you can't keep) Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live We can live here and be happy with less So many riches, so many souls Everything we see that we want to possess If you need somebody Call my name If you want someone You can do, you can do, you can do the same If you want to keep something precious You gotta lock it up and throw away the key You wanna hold on to your possession Don't even think about me If you love somebody If you love someone If you love somebody If you love someone Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free Set them free Free free set them free
