If I were free  what I would do 
I'd run and lock myself away with you 
And turn a ring  into a key              
Oh  I know that's what I'd do 
If I were free     
If I were strong  I would be so mild 
I would be strong enough to love you like a child 
I would turn a cry  into a song   
Oh  I know that's what I would do 
If I were strong 
If I were wise  then I would see 
What makes you love a foolish man like me          
I'd stand by you  just like a tree 
Oh I know that's what I would do 
I would chain myself to you 
I would never leave this room if I were free 
A line of birds across the sun 
Darling it's my fate to follow on the run 
But girl this running is not for me 
I would never run again if I were free
And here's just what I'd do 
I would chain myself to you 
I would never leave this room if I was free
