Lyrics
Livin' Free
Music and lyrics by John Neil Martin

Verse 1:
We're all looking for freedom
We all want to be free
Sometimes when you feel blind
That's when you will see
Look up in the sky
Forget what you know
Can't you see that you've got it all
when you let it all go
Pre-chorus :
Every night I know
every time I dream
just how it will go
for you and me
Leave it all behind
I believe we'll find
I believe we'll find
We're livin' free
Chorus :
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're living' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Pre-Choruse 2 :
Sometimes it's hard to say
I'm a prisoner of change
I want to just hold on
don't want to rearrange
We open up the skies
when we're open
to our dreams . . .
We're livin' free
Chorus :
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Bridge :
Lookin' for a brand new way
We all want to be free
A bright new light to shine and say
It's time to all be free we'll all be free . . .
Breakdown :
Ohhh ohhh oh
Ohhh ohhh oh
Ohhh ohhh oh
Chorus :
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
Ohhh ohhh oh
We're livin' free
We're livin' free
