Set Me Free
Liberation in Love: "Set Me Free" by Charlie Rich Explained
Lyrics
If you think you've had enough
If you feel you've reached a point of saturation
If you think our life's been rough
If you believe our life together has been challenging
Why not take your love line off of me
Suggesting the idea of ending the romantic connection
And set me free.
Expressing the desire to be released from the relationship
If you think our love's all wrong
If you perceive our love as problematic
And you feel the fire is gone
Feeling that the passion has faded away
If I'm not what you'dlike for me
If I'm not meeting your expectations
To be, set me free.
Asking to be freed from the commitment
Set me free and let me fly
Expressing the desire to be liberated and allowed to soar
Like a bluebird fly 'n high
Comparing the freedom to a bluebird flying high
Release the chains that bind me
Calling for the removal of emotional constraints
To be, set me free.
To be released from the relationship, set me free
But you can't likes to hold on
Highlighting the difficulty of letting go
Onto love till it grows cold
Suggesting a tendency to cling to love even as it fades
And you held on much too long
Criticizing the prolonged attachment to the relationship
To me, set me free.
Reiterating the plea to be released from the emotional tie
Set me free and let me fly
Repeating the desire for freedom and the ability to fly
Like a bluebird fly 'n high
Using the metaphor of a bluebird flying high for liberation
Release the chains that bind me
Emphasizing the need to break free from emotional restraints
To be, set me free.
Reiterating the plea for liberation from the relationship
Set me free...
Reinforcing the request for freedom
