When a spirit is broken

Why go on

When there's nothing to say

And a 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 doing alright

As I face the lonely night



And our love it was over

Long ago

But we just didn't say

And the years they have fallen

One by one

How they drifted away



But now I'm free as a bird

As I walk out that door

You have my word

I won't bother you no more

Yes I'm feeling OK

As I face the brand new day

As I face the brand new day



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 doing alright

As I face the lonely night

As I face the lonely night



No more sorrows will I find

I've got tomorrow on my side

No more teardrops will I cry

Left my teardrops way behind

No more sorrows will I find

I've got tomorrow on my side

No more teardrops will I cry

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

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 all night
