You didn't have to ask me if I was free today
I came and sat beside you and then we drove away
I was in the neighborhood, pretending to be someone good
Bringing love and money home

You didn't have to worry, this thing's been going 'round
Don't tell me about the jewelery or where it can be found
Dad said it's a false alarm, I thought he sounded strangely calm
That didn't stop me running home

Holding the line between the shows and interviews
Never had time to give the best of me to you
You set me free
Free to go it alone, with nothing to owe you
But a voice down the phone
Sending love and money home

In the town of Kutaisi, they named me after you
Acting was your fantasy that never did come true
But heaven's voice cast its spell and showed me how to give them hell
Handed down with love from you

Holding the line between the shows and interviews
Never had time to give the best of me to you
You set me free
Free to go it alone, with nothing to owe you
But a voice down the phone
Sending love and money home
Sending love and money home
