If you wanna go away
Then I've got something I must say
You'd better think about it twice
And the sacrifice you're making

So it's your life
But you may miss my loving arms
My loving arms at night

You say you wanna have your freedom
Say you wanna have your space
Well, who am I to change your mind
Criticize the time you're taking

'Cause it's your life
But you may miss my loving arms
My loving arms at night, oh baby

And time goes slowly when you've got no one
And life gets lonely when the evening comes
And you're crying in the rain

If you wanna throw away
A love you know will always stay
Take away the broken chains
And the heart of pain you're making

And time goes slowly when you've got no one
And life gets lonely when the evening comes
And you're crying in the rain

Say you wanna have your freedom
Say you wanna have your space
You'd better think about it twice
And the sacrifice you're making
