Days Of Independence

His bag is packed, he's got it in his hand Got his ticket to freedom, on the platform he stands He says: This boomtown has seen the last of me It's time to move on, time to break free The boy is stepping out - finally free Days of independence - and liberty This itching feeling, grew stronger by the day Restless dreams, just wanna get away Old enough to make his own decisions, to choose his own path Old enough to make his own mistakes, to follow his heart The boy is stepping out - finally free Days of independence - and liberty Just remember as you close the door That the same ol' railroad track That is about to take you away - can also bring you back The boy is stepping out - finally free Days of independence - and liberty The boy is stepping out - in to the cold grey light Excitement in his eyes - start living his own life
