Babe I want to see your face again I'm burning candles every day I can't forget the words you said On the backseat of that old time Chevrolet Caresses are meant to stay, I guess In memories of lonely hearted men And you're a free bird, you're a free bird I wish I could have known I don't want a cigaret I want your love above it all When I'm loosing ground I'm looking all over town To see if there's a chance you coming home Feeling tired and roughly made In summer time, but I can't complain I got your beauty in my head And that's the compromise I made To stand awake and proud Dorothy, she tried to help She said "The world is full of girls With pretty eyes and long dark hair" You bet I tried, but I can't compare I don't want a sip of gin I want your love above it all When I'm loosing ground I'm looking all over town To see if there's a chance you coming home You coming home See if there's a chance you coming home You coming home See if there's a chance you coming home I don't want a cigaret I want your love above it all When I'm loosing ground I'm looking all over town To see if there's a chance you coming home
