Wild Orchid - You Don't Own Me lyrics

rate me

There we were

On a Sunday afternoon

Just holding hands

Lover making future plans together

We thought forever, forever, yeah...

Now here we are

The hand that used to hold me gently

Doesn't know when to let me go

It holds too tight now

And we just fight now

Where is the love

<i>[Chorus:]</i>

You don't own me

Can't control me

I'm not gonna change for nobody

You don't own me

You can't chain me down

If I'm the one you love

Then set me free

Set me free

Side by side

We should walk together

See love eye to eye

Remember all the reasons why you love me

Strength within me

Can't tie it down

You're not my mother

Not my father

You're supposed to be my lover

Not my sister

Not my brother

Gotta be more than just another

Another guy forgettin the combination to my heart

Just another page inside of a book without a mark

Love won't be my ball and chain

Driving me insane

Cause you're holdin me down

Holdin me down

Stop holdin me down down down

You don't own me

Can't control me

I'm not gonna change for nobody

No,no

You don't own me

I'm not chained babe.

If I'm the one you love

Then set me free

Set me free

You only call me when I want you to <i>[x8]</i>

You don't own me

You can't control me

I'm not gonna change for nobody

no no

You don't own me

I'm not chained babe.

If I'm the one you love

Then set me free

You're not my mother

Not my father

You're supposed to be my lover

Not my sister

Not my brother

Gotta be more than just another

Another guy forgettin the combination to my heart

Just another page inside of a book without a mark

You don't own me

You can't control me

If you love me,

set me free.

You don't own me

Then set me free

Set me free
