Lyrics Free - Eagle-Eye Cherry

When you bound my arms you freed me for flight,
When you blindfolded me you freed my sight,
When you knocked me down you freed me with a shove,
When you hated me you freed me to love.
When you stole my book you freed me to learn,
When you slapped my cheek you freed me to turn,
When you clipped my wings you freed me from the glove,
When you hated me you freed me to love.
When you cuffed me you cut my burdens off,
When you jailed me you sent my dreams aloft,
You tried to break me like every sinner does,
When you hated me you freed me to love.
