it's not your fault that you're pretty
and it's not your fault you breathe love
you can't help the way that you feel day to day
always running and not knowing what from
but i guess that's the way that you like it
i suppose that's the way that you live
but damn you for making your way to my heart
always taking, unwilling to give
it's a complicated web you weave
you start but you don't finish
and every time i turn around
you're here then you're gone
oh, free bird
where are you going, you're wayward
so far from hanging on my words
so far from hanging on anything, anything, anything
free bird
slow down for a minute, you're tired
must be nice to be desired
must be nice to hold the world in the palm of your hands
(free bird don't fly)
but i'm still your biggest fan
well it's been a while since i've seen you
but i know without doubt, you're just fine
and someday i know i'll be turning my head
to your smile when the stars all align
but i have to admit that i'm broken
i wish i could keep you in my grasp
feel the sun on your face
by your side place to place
finally feeling that something could last
it's a complicated web you weave
you start but you don't finish
and every time i turn around
you're here then you're gone
oh, free bird
where are you going, you're wayward
so far from hanging on my words
so far from hanging on anything, anything, anything
free bird
slow down for a minute, you're tired
must be nice to be desired
must be nice to hold the world in the palm of your hand
(free bird don't fly)
free bird
where are you going, you're wayward
so far from hanging on my words
so far from hanging on anything, anything, anything
free bird
slow down for a minute, you're tired
must be nice to be desired
must be nice to hold the world in the palm of your hand
must be nice to hold the world in the palm of your hand
(free bird don't fly)
but i'm still your biggest fan
