But then I started to think
To pull myself together
Would you mind tellin' me
Of course I was hurt
Why I don't know what to do with myself?
Would you mind tellin' me
No one could ever forget
Would you mind tellin' me
Why I don't know what to do with myself?
But if it's so good bein' free
To pull myself together
There's a bar by the dock
For a day and a night
Why I don't know what to do with myself?
It's what I really need
Would you mind tellin' me
But if it's so good bein' free
To pull myself together
So I came down the hill
He broke into my heart
To pull myself together
And I accepted
Drinking with this man
I thought of the boy
He offered me a cigarette
I stayed beside him
It's what I really need
It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It shouldn't hurt me to be free
But if it's so good bein' free
Where I found myself
Until I had no hope
As it burned till the end
'Cause it's been a very long time
But if it's so good bein' free
