Don’t believe what you’ve been told if you really want to be with me. Don’t anchor yourself with gold. I truly want you, but I want you free. As free as all the plastic in the sea − as free as all that plastic in the sea. Don’t believe what you’ve been sold. Freedom-branded captivity. I’m not a fan of the tried and old. I have a greater vision for you and me: as vast as the Fukushima stream − larger than the Fukushima stream. I want you, but only you. I want you free. I want you true. People want to follow the show, but all I really want is to see your soul. Don’t make me wait for the veil. Time is the one thing we can’t beat. And like my heart it’s not for sale − It runs like a river to the sea. It runs like the ice caps breaking free − it runs like those ice caps breaking free. I want you, but only you. I want you free. I want you true. People want to follow the show, but all I really want is to see your soul. Baby, all I really want is to see your soul.
