Free Bird

As I'm growing older
I wonder when time had gone by
Knowing I feel young inside

Are you ready now
to hold me 
kiss me
love me  
to infinity 

Teasing you was my favorite game 
The moment has been washed away

Memories anchor my heart, deep in the water
If I am dead
Please let me be
Living a lie isn't so easy
 
Swimming up to the surface
Only to resurface 
Careless recovery 

Breath through my chest
My savior is the best

At last 
I can go home in peace
Pray to you on my knees
