Lyrics
?If you want
You can dive
You can bike in the sky
If you want
You can bottle the sea
If you want
You can light up a match in the night
Light a star,
Light your own galaxy?
Liberty, Liberty
Speak to me my darling
Will you speak to me?
Liberty, Liberty
Long to hear your voice
So darling speak to me
?If you want
You can have
Your own slice of the moon
Lay your bed
In a crater at night
If you want
You can ride on the universe soon
All you need is a heart like a kite?
Every night I prey
That you will light my way
That you will come to life
And you will speak to me
Every night I see
The same old fantasy
That you will move your lips
And you will speak to me
