I see the door my hands are shaking I know the hour has come to let you go So sad to think that we are breaking And there's just enough time To let you know I hope for guidance on the way you choose I think of you in everything I do And when you're homesick now There was no use It is time to go for me I see the open door You've got to let me go I told you to be happy I told you to be true I told you to be free I gave you all my secrets I gave you all my life Now I want you to be free I told you to be free Gotta move on, gotta move on, Gotta move on, Oh Oh Oh I want you to be free Be aware of one way alleys Of trails that lead Into the darkest woods Keep an eye on false ambitions And be sure you always did The best you could And every time you give your heart away You give away a little part of me And everywhere you hear our tune play You'll know that I'm around Although so far away Oh I just couldn't stay I told you to be happy I told you to be true I told you to be free I gave you all my secrets I gave you all my life Now I want you to be free I told you to be free Gotta move on, Gotta move on Gotta move on, Oh Oh Oh I told you to be free You might hear The echoes of footsteps These days, some place we've been And when the memories Are making you sleepless Let go, let go just let me go I told you to be happy I told you to be true I told you to be free I gave you all my secrets I gave you all my life Now I want you to be free I told you to be free Gotta move on, gotta move on Gotta move on, Oh Oh Oh I want you to be free
