Wear It Like A Flag

(álbum: Freedom Knows My Name - 1993)

Who put the smile on my face
Somebody sound an alarm
I go to sleep now with one eye open
And dream with the one light on

I'm gonna figure it out later on
I want to see if I shouldn't or should
But I can't seem to follow the reasons
Or love for my own damn good

But it's my love
And I'll do what I want when I want to with it
It's my love
And I'll wear it like a flag
It's my heart
But I'll break it to pieces
Before it breaks me down

Who put the smile on my face
Somebody sound an alarm
I go to sleep now with one eye open
And dream with the one light on

Who's sneaking up from behind
Who's gonna cover my eyes
Whose gonna be the first one to hear
The scream of my surprise

But it's my love
And I'll do what I want when I want to with it
It's my love
And I'll wear it like a flag
It's my heart
But I'll break it to pieces
Before it breaks me down

Who put the smile on my face
Somebody sound an alarm
I go to sleep now with one eye open
And dream with the one light on

I'm gonna call you back later for sure
But I do what I do when I can
I'm gonna love you to death and if that don't kill ya
Wait 'til I catch my second wind

But it's my love
And I'll do what I want when I want to with it
It's my love
And I'll wear it like a flag
It's my heart
But I'll break it to pieces
Before it breaks me down

Who put the smile on my face
Somebody sound an alarm
I go to sleep now with one eye open
And dream with the one light on
