 You Don't Own Me
You Don't Own Me
There we were
On a Sunday afternoon
Just holding hands
Lover making future plans together
We thought forever, forever, yeah
Now here we are
The hand that used to hold me gently
Doesn't know when to let me go
It holds too tight now
And we just fight now
Where is the love
You don't own me
Can't control me
I'm not gonna change for nobody
You don't own me
You can't chain me down
If I'm the one you love
Then set me free
Set me free
Side by side
We should walk together
See love eye to eye
Remember all the reasons why you love me
Strength within me
Can't tie it down
You're not my mother
Not my father
You're supposed to be my lover
Not my sister
Not my brother
Gotta be more than just another
Another guy forgettin the combination to my heart
Just another page inside of a book without a mark
Love won't be my ball and chain
Driving me insane
Cause you're holdin me down
Holdin me down
Stop holdin me down down down
You don't own me
Can't control me
I'm not gonna change for nobody
No,no
You don't own me
I'm not chained babe.
If I'm the one you love
Then set me free
Set me free
You only call me when I want you to
You don't own me
You can't control me
I'm not gonna change for nobody
no no
You don't own me
I'm not chained babe.
If I'm the one you love
Then set me free
You're not my mother
Not my father
You're supposed to be my lover
Not my sister
Not my brother
Gotta be more than just another
Another guy forgettin the combination to my heart
Just another page inside of a book without a mark
You don't own me
You can't control me
If you love me,
set me free.
You don't own me
Then set me free
Set me free...
