Running out of time before I can
Shake these habits for before I run
Never minded being who I am
Need a little help to guide the hand

I don't want to care which way the wind is blowing
I just want to tell
Say yes without knowing

And keep that smile just like you don't wonder why
So care free that I can taste that freedom once in a while

When we're younger shelter is a liberty
Just as easily given, as taken away
I'm not saying it's wrong
I'm just saying it's different
When you came along, the land shifted
And maybe before I had been cast in a way that induced
Now I'm feeding the fire, and walking out of the cinders

Keep that smile just like you not wonder why
So care free that I can taste that freedom once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while

One night, we might, take it all and be there
Without the sound of the voice in my head
She speaks of fears which have no place here
Your smile, my tears, draw us nearer, draw us nearer

Keep that smile just like you not wonder why
So care free that I can taste that freedom once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while
