Set Me Free

I came to you because I loved you
 
I stretched my arm of friendship and you warmly welcomed me
 
And since that day, my life had undergone a metamorphic change
 
Renewed for the future with a focus of unwavering concentration
 
I gave you all I had for that moment
 
I told you all I ever knew and been through
 
I was committed to the friendship because I believed in you
 
Always saw you as some kind of heavenly angel on earthly assignment
 
But along the way I found out I was alone
 
Though I could find your body around
 
But your spirit and soul were far gone away
 
I knew I was caged because I had given my all
 
I needed someone to set me free
 
Who would set me free? For I was drawn in the ocean of love
 
 I had withdrawn every other thing except my heart of love
 
It kept longing for you, more, more and more
 
Who would set me free? Set me free.

Well, He did quite a long time ago, but you'd start to enjoy the benefits more if only you realise.
