When a spirit is broken
Why go on
When there's nothing to say
And our love, just a token
It was strong
Now, it's fading away Ah, but I'm free as a bird
As I walk right out that door
You have my word
I won't bother you no more
Yes, I'm doin' alright
As I face the lonely night And our love, it was over
Long ago
But we just couldn't say
And the years, they had fallen
One by one
How they drifted away But now, I'm free as a bird
As I walk right out that door
You have my word
I won't bother you no more
Yes, I'm feeling okay
As I face a brand new day
As I face the brand new day And you know
You know, I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door
You have my word
I won't bother you no more
Yes, I'm doin' alright
As I face a lonely night
As I face the lonely night No more sorrow will I find
I've got tomorrow on my side
No more teardrops will I cry
I left my teardrops way behind No more sorrow will I find
I've got tomorrow on my side
No more teardrops will I cry
I left my teardrops way behind No more heartaches bother me
Don't wear my heartaches on my sleeve It's gonna be a brand new story
An' what's the use of former glory
It's better not to do if you can't do right
It's time to get to celebrating
After all the years of waiting
I'm gonna have a ball, if it takes me all night
