Lyrics
Broke the lock on my bedroom door
My hands are black and blue
Need some time - some time to think
Of anything but you
Ooh - Look at me I'm spreading my wings
Whoever said you can't get no satisfaction
Didn't try too hard
Ooh - Look at me I'm spreading my wings
From way up here I'm only feeling free from everything I knew down there
Every step I try to take
Judged by someone else
How can I really live my life
Unless I do it myself
Ooh - Look at me I'm spreading my wings
Whoever said you can't get no satisfaction
Didn't try too hard
Ooh - Look at me I'm spreading my wings
From way up here I'm only feeling free from everything I knew down there
I'd like a limo to the airport
Champagne for my new friends
A phone to call you on
Just to say
I won't be coming home
I won't be coming home today
