Freedom Is Insane - The Stranglers

Early morning my eyes gaze across the sea

No one has ever walk here except you and me

I didn’t want to tell you about the other times

I didn’t want you to leave across the sea

The sound of waves trades my days as someone else

I look so calm but then again I’ve been so far

Once I spied a wisp of smoke on the horizon

But I didn’t think to let you know

'Cause here freedom is insane

Freedom is insane

Here we are so very far from all the rest

It seems the wind only knows you name

Once upon a time I found a footprint in the sand

But I rubbed it out before you came

Here freedom is insane

Freedom is insane

I came here in my hoopla car everywhere it works the same

I thought they’d treat me like a rock and roll star

I better find someone to blame

I better find someone to blame

We came here we had little choice but now it’s not the same

We only have each other but I never staked my claim

It seems absurd to want to go out into the great unknown

But that’s exactly the place from where we came

Early morning my eyes gaze across the sea

No one has ever walk here except you and me

I didn’t want to tell you about the other times

I didn’t want you to leave across the sea
