The world changed face Soon as I came of age Look what it did to mine Painted it with the time What I wouldn't give to be Free as a fisherman floating upstream Nothing up ahead of me Free as a fisherman floating upstream I know, I've tried I cannot enjoy this ride Swimming against the tide But will I be Any stronger once the water Starts working with me By then will I be In one piece Still in one piece What I wouldn't give to be Free as a fisherman floating upstream Nothing up ahead of me Free as a fisherman floating upstream What I wouldn't give to be Free
