Free As The Wind by Andy Williams

 

Yesterday's world is a dream like a river
that runs through my mind made of fields
and the white pebbled stream
that I knew as a child

Butterfly wings in the sun
taught me all that I needed to see
for they sang, sang to my heart
Oh, look at me. Oh, Look at me
"Free as the wind, free as the wind
that is the way you should be."
"Free as the wind, free as the wind,
that is the way you should be."

Love was the dream of my life
and I gave it the best I know how
So it always brings tears to my eyes
when I sing all of it now
Gone like the butterfly sings
and the boy that I once used to be

But my heart still hears
the voice telling me
"Look, look and you'll see."
"Free as the wind, free as the wind,
that is the way you should be."
"Free as the wind, free as the wind,
that is the way you should be."

There's no regret that I feel
for the bitter-sweet taste of it all
If you love there's a chance you may fly
If you fall, well, you fall
rather the butterfly's life
you have lived for a day and been free

Oh, my heart still hears
that voice telling me
"Look, and you'll see."
"Free as the wind, free as the wind,
that is the way you should be."
"Free as the wind, free as the wind
that is the way you should be."
