Baby, won't you set me free, won't you set me free

I've got a scorched wound on my back

It's the spot where your eyes have burnt me, baby

I'm hand-cuffed like a captive

and I bet you've swallowed the only key

You say you're not to blame

that it's the only thing you've ever learned

I thought suspicion died when the wall collapsed

but the bad-penny has returned

I know you spy on me

but baby won't you set me free, won't you set me free

Seperated by a wall

We were lovers as well as enemies

You served your country 'cause you had to

but you dreamt each night of being free

But some sheep turn into wolves

and some dreams turn into nightmares

Since you're here you give me all your love

but baby, it's so hard to bare

I know you spy on me

but baby won't you set me free, won't you set me free

Stuck with a spy who loves me

She knows evertything I do

Day or night I'm in her sight

she's sticking to me like some glue

Stuck with a love who spies on me

She won't let go

Steps I take, laws I break

There's nothing she won't know

Sitting in a pitch-dark room

Waiting for the rope around my neck

And though I know it can't be true

I feel her stone-cold eyes burning in my back

I know you spy on me

but baby won't you set me free, won't you set me free
