Freecheetah
If I leave here tomorrow 
Would you still remember me? 
For I must be travelling on, now, 
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. 
But, if I stayed here with you,  
Things just couldn't be the same. 
'Cause I'm as free as a cheetah now, 
And this cheetah you cannot cage. 
Lord knows, I can't be caged. 
Bye, bye, it's been a sweet love. 
Though this feeling I can't change. 
But please don't take it badly, 
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame. 
But, if I stayed here with you, 
Things just couldn't be the same. 
Cause I'm as free as a cheetah now, 
And this cheetah you'll never cage.
(or put in a zoo)
(even a good one with lots of hamburger meat)
