There was a place we used to go

There was a star we called our own

And it was bright, so bright

There was hope inside our eyes

It put charm into our lives

And we were free, so free



I always felt that the more we had

Was a burden on you and me.

Happiness comes to those that can believe

That all the best things are free



There was laughter in our words

Serious thoughts, they lay unsaid

Of what we could be

All we see has no surprise

All of history in our eyes

What have we learned?



I always felt that we were kept apart

By the chase for guarantees

I always had the urge to let you be

All the best things are free



Can't you see that once again

Fate has played its hand

Shoot the breeze with love as our command.

Time and tide they say wait for no one.

Hope is when the best is still to come.



All the best things are free

Don't chase for guarantees

Can't you see

That all the best things are free
