My Freedom

My freedom
I have long kept you
Like a rare pearl
My freedom
It's you who helped me
Shed my anchors
To go anywhere
To go to the end
Of the paths of fortune
To dreamily pick
A rose of the winds
On a moonbeam
 
My freedom
To your desires
My soul was submissive
My freedom
I gave you everything
The shirt on my back
And how I suffered
To satisfy
Your every demand
I changed countries,
I lost my friends
To win your trust
 
My freedom
You were able to disarm
All my habits
My freedom
You who made me love
Even solitude
You who made me smile
When I saw the end
Of a beautiful adventure
You who protected me
When I went to hide
To care for my wounds.
 
My freedom
Yet I left you
A december night
I deserted
The far-off paths
That we wandered together
When, unsuspecting,
My hands and feet bound,
I let myself go
And I betrayed you
For a prison of love
And it's beautiful jail-keeper.
 
And I betrayed you
For a prison of love
And it's beautiful jail-keeper.
