You Can Try, But You’ll Never Own Me – Down Past the Fountains

LYRICS ::

For too long,
I’ve been stuck in your binds
I’ve waited so long
I think it is about time

Oh, for so long I was waiting for some kind of change
Oh, you can try
But you’ll never own me

For too long
I’ve waited for you to come through
But honey
There’s some things you just can’t make do

Oh, did you think I was such a fool
To be confined by your useless rules
Oh, you can try
But you’ll never own me

Too many
Have tried to put a price on my soul
But a free soul
Can’t be bought you know

When that sun rises tomorrow
Hopefully it’ll shine some of its light on you
Oh, you can try
But you’ll never own me

So I waited in the shadows
For freedom to be revealed
But nothing ever changed
My sentence was never repealed

Oh, little did I know
I’d always held the key to my chains
Oh, you can try
But you’ll never own me

The baby bird
Was given wings
So no matter how high the mountains
It could always be free

I’m sorry, but it’s time for me to go
& I’ve waited so long to let you know
That you can try
But you’ll never own me
Oh, you, you can try
But you’ll never own me

Hmmmm
Hmmmm
Hmmmm
Hmmmm
