about

This is one of my oldest songs, brought back from my 20's.

lyrics

Set Me Free by Jim Beckwith ©1984

I'm feeling like I lost the fire
feeling like I lost all desire,
feeling like I need a friend
but not at the cost of pretending;
You can't blame me for my honesty.
That if nothing else will set me free.

This is a song for you.
Love, NOT love is the reason.
I've been driven past the meaning of desire.

Everybody needs a reason
for the life they live...
A person needs some way to justify...

You'll get yours and I'll get mine
We'll end up having a real good time
and we'll love ourselves
and I'll love you more
and we'll love the world
and there'll be no wars
there'll be no war....

Instrumental - classical guitar

(1st verse again)
I'm feeling like I lost the fire
feeling like I lost all desire,
feeling like I need a friend
but not at the cost of pretending;
You can't blame me for my honesty.
That if nothing else will set me free.
