Free
One day you’ll find that life
Is so much more than just a cozy home
No grudges, no pain, no goodbyes
Without a doubt, you’ll choose your own way
In front of you, a vast horizon
Behind you, home fading far away
And then you’ll say
Free at last, oh lord, from me
No destination, no law, no God
Free at last, oh lord, from me
No limits, no direction, the world is mine
The world is mine
You’ll savor every second
Taste the thousand delights of this world
As if tomorrow didn’t exist
As if luck finally smiled
Your nights will be long and full
Of friends and fleeting loves
And then you’ll say
Free at last, oh lord, from me
No destination, no law, no God
Free at last, oh lord, from me
No limits, no direction, the world is mine
The world is mine
But now and then you’ll recall
The good advice from your dad
That through rain, sun, or storm
In villages, in mountains, in cities
In alleys, on corners, in taverns
Your name will be called with such a tender voice
And when he finds you
He’ll hug you and smile
In such a loving way that
You won’t be able to resist
And then you’ll say
Free at last, now it’s true
In the warmth of God’s embrace
Free at last, now it’s true
Free at last from the world
And love has won.
