If You Love Sombody Set Them Free Songtext
von Sting

Free-free, set them free (oh-ooh-whoa)
Free-free, set them free
Free-free, set them free
Free-free, set them free

If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you wanna keep something precious
Gotta lock it up and throw away the key
You want to hold on to your possession
Don′t even think about me

If you love somebody
If you love someone
If you love somebody
If you love someone, set them free

Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)


If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark, tied up in chains you just can′t see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever wanna be

If you love somebody (love somebody)
If you love someone (love somebody)
If you love somebody (love somebody)
If you love someone, set them free

Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free

You can't control an independent heart (can′t hold what you can′t keep)
Can't tear the one you love apart (can′t love what you can't keep)
Forever conditioned to believe that we can′t live
We can't live here and be happy with less
So many riches, so many souls
Everything we see there, we want to possess


If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone
You can do, you can do, you can do the same
If you wanna keep something precious
You gotta lock it up and throw away the key
You wanna hold onto your possession
Don′t even think about me

If you love somebody (love somebody)
If you love someone (love somebody)
If you love somebody (love somebody)
If you love someone, set them free

Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (aw! Set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)

Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free (set them free)
Free-free, set them free
