Lyrics
Chris Madin
- Iām falling free in the wind, in the wind
- Free to be me in the wind, in the wind
- What would it feel like to be speed of light
- And rule the night and day
- Watch as it passes by, the masses try you
- But they just canāt keep up
- Into the free, into the me
- Into the ever knowin'
- Felt so refrained,
- Felt so constrained
- But now Iām breaking out and
- Iām falling free in the wind, in the wind,
- Free to be me in the wind, in the wind
- Beg, borrow, steal, you made your deal
- And with no hesitation
- Crawl, walk, or run, youāve had your fun
- Of which is very certain
- Into the free, into the me
- Into the ever knowin'
- Felt so constrained, felt so in pain
- But now Iām breaking out and
- Iām falling into the free, to the free
- Free to be me I am free, I am free
- I'm free
- Free
- Iām falling free in the wind, in the wind
- Free to be me in the wind, in the wind
- What would it take for you to make
- A simple speed transition
- Into the known, from the unknown
- And feed this wild temptation
- Into the free, been starving me
- Into the ever knowin'
- Felt so constrained, felt so ashamed
- But now Iām breaking out and
- Iām living in, in the free, in the free
- Free to be me, I am free, I am free
- Iām falling free in the wind, in the wind
- Free to be me in the wind, in the wind
- I'm falling free in the wind, in the wind
- Free to be me in the wind, in the wind
- Iām free
