A cigarette was burning like the clock was turning
I was sitting on the side of the road
Catching the view of the people passing through
And my eyes quickly turning to stone and thought
I want to let go, find out what I know
See how the scene flows out on the free road
You got time to let it in; you got Time to let it out
You got time to get free, that's a good time to figure it out so
When you got your back to the wind and the rain comes pouring down
You got time to get free, stop your stalling the highway's calling
Youth, I saw you staring at me from the horizon
You're young as fire; just let me be, let me be
I'm not a bird in a cage; I'm a man in the world
They were lying when they told you you're a regular girl
And together we stand so together we roll
We can teach each other things that we haven't been told
So, if you want to get free,
Just stop you're stalling the highway's calling
Youth, I saw you staring at me from the horizon
You're young as fire; just let me be, let me be
Youth, I saw you staring at me from the horizon
You're young as fire; just let me be, let me be
A cigarette was burning like the clock was turning
I was sitting on the side of the road
Youth, I saw you staring at me from the horizon
You're young as fire; just let me be, let me be
Youth, I saw you staring at me from the horizon
You're young as fire; well let me be, oh let me be
Oh
