Lyrics
Bossa Nostra
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You've gotta find some party girl
Someone to love you as you are
You don't need psychoanalysis
Every time you make statement
Bite the bullet babe
Understand that you're the only one like you
A spirit totally special
There ain't a thing in the world that you can't do
You're a free thing
Fly like you want to
Such a free thing
Amaze me with your beauty
Just a free thing
Don't be afraid to step into the light
And stand there on your own
I recognise the strength in you
I wish it was my own
You lie for him
You cried over him
You're right where he wants you to be
But now the bough must break
The strength you can take
Cos baby you're free
You're a free thing
Fly like you want to
Such a free thing
Amaze me with your beauty
Just a free thing
Fly like you want to
It's a free thing
Amaze me with your beauty
