I said you'd be free, didn't I
I said you'd climb high, didn't I
I took you out to the sky
I told you one day you'd fly

You didn't believe me, did you then
You didn't look up, did you then
You didn't look to the sky
You didn't believe you'd fly
You didn't believe you'd fly

If you're gonna spread your wings
And hear the song that freedom sings
Remember that I told you to be free
If you're gonna sweep the sky
And feel the wind come rushing by
Remember that I told you to be free
Remember that I told you to be free

(repeat)

I said you'd be free, didn't I
I said you'd climb high, didn't I
I took you out to the sky
I told you one day you'd fly

You didn't believe me, did you then
You didn't look up, did you then
You didn't look to the sky
You didn't believe you'd fly
You didn't believe you'd fly

If you're gonna spread your wings
And hear the song that freedom sings
Remember that I told you to be free
If you're gonna sweep the sky
And feel the wind come rushing by
Remember that I told you to be free
Remember that I told you to be free
