Cleveland Bobs? a friend of mine
He?s got this crazy dream
Surfing on the crystal sunny waves
On certain days I envy him
He?s put the past away
Buried inside it?s deep dark grave

Embrace the things you know that you should be
Embrace the hope that love will set you free
Love will set you free

Melanie?s a friend of mine
She?s got this bright red hair
I tease her that she is my circus clown
She doesn?t see herself the way I see her everyday
She says I pick her up she?s underground

Embrace the things you know that you should be
Embrace the hope that love will set you free
Love will set you free

I don?t know just who I?m supposed to be
I don?t know if love will set me free
Here I go just talking about myself
Maybe I can put me on the shelf
Maybe put my ego on the shelf and see
That I am free and life is good for me

My sister Ronda is my friend
It?s been that way for years
Went to dinner just the other night
We shared some laughs we shared some tears
We shared our simple fears
I guess that makes us equal
That?s all right

Embrace the things you know that you should be
Embrace the hope that love will set you free
Embrace the things you know that you should be
Embrace the hope that love will set you free
Love will set you free


I don?t know just where I?m supposed to turn
I can?t remember all the bridges burned
Here I go just talking about myself
Maybe I can put me on the shelf
Maybe put my ego on the shelf
