Ellis Paul

Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey; January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, bridging the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. more »

You turn a blue eye to me and you look right through me 
You said define what you think freedom means if you want freedom 
We can wake up this lullaby town
Burn through every red light I found
Lift a dust cloud 
Break the speed of sound
you could break free

If you want to run I'll pack my suitcase 
If you want to stay I'll make a front door key 
And if you need space to fly free 
Take all the sky you need 

I stand on the rooftops; I look down on my story
And it swallows me
Beyond the horizon, the taillights, the glories
Will you follow me? 
(Freedom) I need to know who I am
(Freedom) I'm like a moth in your hand
(Sweet freedom) do I fly or stand?
Or fall on my knees?

If you want to run I'll pack my suitcase 
If you want to stay I'll make a front door key 
And if you need space to fly free 
Take all the sky you need 

If you want to run I'll pack my suitcase 
If you want to stay I'll make a front door key 
And if you need space to fly free 
Take all the sky you need
