Lyrics
FREE
Baby blues and rosy cheeks
that's the picture she keeps
when she's all on her own
not the man he'd become
no that wasn't her son
who'd left her all alone
Guilt is tearing her apart
and it's breaking her heart
that she couldn't say goodbye
sometimes she can't understand
that it was out of her hands
and now his soul will fly
Take my hand come walk with me
Look to the heavens there he'll be
Hmm hmm hmm
Close your eyes and feel the love
watching you from up above
now his soul is FREE
She goes over to a friend's
but she cannot pretend
that her thoughts aren't with him
she longs to hold him once again
kiss his face in the rain
she feels she is to blame
her baby boy just grew up
got mixed up in some stuff
that he couldn't control
drugs took over his life
he could not win the fight
now God's taken his soul
Take my hand come walk with me
Look to the heavens there he'll be
Hmm hmm hmm
Close your eyes and feel the love
watching you from up above
now his soul is FREE
She feels half of who she was
just a shadow because
she's no longer complete
now his pain has all gone
she tells herself she'll be strong
knowing his soul is free
Take my hand come walk with me
Look to the heavens there he'll be
Hmm hmm hmm
Close your eyes and feel the love
watching you from up above
now his soul is FREE
