Free of It All

You were captain of the ship
It was headed for rocks
But you were first in the lifeboat somehow
Now youre watching from shore
As the passengers wave from the bow

Free of it all
Now youll just float away
Blowin like leaves on the wind
The rules of the game can be changed
By the one who wins

Chorus:
Now youre free of it all
So free of it all
Now youre free of it all
So free of it all
And I know that youd say
That youd always planned it this way

The cargo was lost
But you never give in
Your heart is still locked in a vault
Youre free of it all
When its somebody elses fault

To finish this spin
With the twist of a hand
To know that youve hidden a crime
One goes on ahead while another is left behind

Chorus:
And youre free of it all
So free of it all
Now youre free of it all
So free of it all
And you knew I would say
Youd always planned it this way

I always knew
You would walk out one day
And it never crossed my mind
To throw in just one more dime
And get this close to the line

Now that its done
And my locksve been changed
And the keys are all back in the drawer
Youre not a prisoner
Im not a guard anymore

Chorus:
And youre free of it all
So free of it all
Now youre free of it all
So free of it all
And youre free of it all
So free of it all
Now youre free of it all
So free of it all
And I know you would say
That youd always planned it this way
