"I Woke Up Feeling Free"

You stop what you're doing to wrap your arms around me
In my foolishness, I turn on myself
I'm screaming wounds until you make me see the light
You let yourself in, I try to keep you out

What could take such a cruel break-up to make me see?
How much I long for you
We've been apart for so long
We thought we'd never come back together again

Do you ever get like the morning bell
Sending a little bell ringing down your spine
Whenever I hear that little melodic sound
It starts my day off right

I wake up feeling free
I feel the nearest trees around you
Every day is getting better than the last every day
It's just an inspiration getting better and better every day

I get to live each moment as it goes
Me and my leafy friends all around me
I've had the time of my life here
Life is so easy when you are merry and free.
