Sorting through some memories, tucked away in a pinewood box-
Scraps, snapshots and pieces of a time that's gone and lost
I don't know where the years have gone, but the memories have found their home in me
We three friends were reckless, we were rebels without a clue, Ryan and James were outlaws, and there was nothing we wouldn't do
Having fun and skipping school, doing things just to break the rules be free
Yeah, I was a part of something, something bigger than life, yeah I was a part of something, so full of pride and strife
Something in my heart keeps taking me back in time to place where I can be free
I remember my first slow dance and a song that played too short, the time that I got busted for sneaking out after dark
I was young and she was too, but to me the dawn came way to soon be free
Yeah, we were a part of something, something bigger than life, yeah a part of something, so full of pride and strife
Something in my heart keeps taking me back in time to place where I can be free
Be Free
I cried the night that I got the word that Ryan's car didn't make the curve, It's so much to say good bye
Yeah, now I'm a part of something, something bigger than life, a part of something, farewell to my pride and strife
Something in my heart keeps taking me back in time to place where I can be free
So free
