about

Watched "Running Down A Dream" a great Tom Petty Documentary this past month. I was so inspired by his boldness, style, and a few Florida gater-punches to the throat of the Music Industry. Petty is really something special. His music seems to glow with casual romance and simple-man's optimism. He always feels real...always. Even when singing, "You got lucky babe...You got lucky babe...When I found you." When the documentary ended...I wrote this song...pretending to be Paul Petty I guess. I feel him in it a bit.

lyrics

BE FREE

We’ve got something
Nobody else I know
Has the same sweet connection
You’re the song I’m a radio

You’ve been hurt Babe
Don’t ever call what you had Love
My lips would never burn you
My hands would never push or shove

I know you wanna be free
Run wild and beautiful
The one and only way that you alone can be

You twist and scream
You were born into this life
From an ocean of mother’s dreams
Into a land of hearts’ with knives

There are no rules...now
Trouble’s gonna find you
Being tough is never quite enough
Double down on Love I’ll be true

I know you wanna be free
Run wild and beautiful
The one and only way that you alone can be

Bridge:
You’re gonna have to try a little harder
Gonna have to run just a little bit farther
You don’t know but you believe it
You don't see but you can feel it
You don’t know but you believe…

We’ve got something
Nobody else I know
Has the same sweet connection
You’re the song I’m a radio

I know you wanna be free
Run wild and beautiful
The one and only way that you alone can be
