STING - If You Love Somebody Set Them Free lyrics

rate me

If you need somebody, call my name<br>If you want someone, you can do the same<br>If you want to keep something precious<br>You got to lock it up and throw away the key<br>If you want to hold onto your possession<br>Don't even think about me<br><br>If you love somebody, set them free<br><br>If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes<br>Or a whipping boy, someone to despise<br>Or a prisoner in the dark<br>Tied up in chains you just can't see<br>Or a beast in a gilded cage<br>That's all some people ever want to be<br><br>If you love somebody, set them free<br><br>You can't control an independent heart<br>Can't tear the one you love apart<br>Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live<br>We can't live here and be happy with less<br>So many riches, so many souls<br>Everything we see we want to possess<br><br>If you need somebody, call my name<br>If you want someone, you can do the same<br>If you want to keep something precious<br>You got to lock it up and throw away the key<br>If you want to hold onto your possession<br>Don't even think about me<br><br>If you love somebody, set them free
