Freedom (Radio Edit)

I know I said I needed time

I know I said I had my reasons for leaving

But I can't get you off my mind

And I'm thinking maybe space ain't what I'm needing

'Cause this don't feel like freedom

Saw you in a coffee shop

West End Street, where we used to walk

Wanted to stop but I didn't

You were looking at your phone

Didn't know if you were alone

Thought it was best not to risk it

Every now and then

Our song comes on the radio

I think of you and then

I wonder why I let you go

I know I said I needed time

I know I said I had my reasons for leaving

But I can't get you off my mind

And I'm thinking maybe space ain't what I'm needing

'Cause this don't feel like freedom

Oh, this don't feel like freedom

Caught up with a couple friends

Got through all them "How you been's"

Tried to bring you up in conversation (mmm)

Told me that they saw you out

At a Broadway bar downtown

I remember when you used to hate it

I'd act like I don't care

But they can tell it's just a lie

I'm running out of air

Wondering why I said goodbye

I know I said I needed time

I know I said I had my reasons for leaving

But I can't get you off my mind

And I'm thinking maybe space ain't what I'm needing

'Cause this don't feel like freedom

Oh, this don't feel like freedom

No, it don't feel like freedom at all

This ain't freedom (oh)

It don't feel like, it don't feel like

I know I said I needed time (you said you needed time)

I know I said I had my reasons for leaving

But I can't get you off my mind

And I'm thinking maybe space ain't what I'm needing

'Cause this don't feel like freedom

Oh, this don't feel like freedom

I know you said you needed space

But it don't feel, (oh), like freedom, like freedom
