  • Put your arms around me, sometimes it feels so cold
    'Cause it telling me things I already know
    Every street preacher wants to waste my time
    As if I needed lessons in how to live my life
    Put your arms around, my heart is shaking
    Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
    Working so hard when the day is breaking
    Working so hard while the city sleeps
    My body's so tired and I'm tired of thinking
    Digging for gold in a land of dreams

    I want a chance of the life I'm missing
    I wanna know what it means to be free
    And I just want to know
    What it is to let go
    Taking long time to find the right faces
    Looking for a soul of every small town
    Traveling light, take in all the right places
    Don't wanna stay and be the last around
    I gotta call home to the ones that love me
    The ones who love me know I'm passing through
    I'm on up to the land above me
    Dust in my hair and dust on my shoes

    And I just want to know, what it is to let go
    And I just gotta see, how it feels to be free
    To be free

    Working so hard to come together
    Working so hard just to live and breathe
    Trying so hard to make it better
    If I trust in you, will you trust in me
    They don't know what makes you happy
    We can't see the joy you feel
    Storm clouds up in the skies above me
    I don't have faith but I do believe

    I just want to know, what it is to let go
    And I just gotta see, how it feels
    To be free, to be free
    To be free, to be free
    To be free, to be free, to be free
    What it is to let go
    How it feels to be free
    What it is to let go
    How it feels to be free, to be free
