This song is inspired by the childhood fragments of memories: freedom, a simple world with no bounds, the joy of just running down a hill in the rain. Just remember that it's all still here within us and we are still free to go...
lyrics
Remember back then
When we were just kids
No one could stop us at all
Remember those feelings
We tried to get free
From daddy's and mommy's laws
And we were free to go
Riding down the road
Running through the storm
We were free to go
Breaking parents' laws
Loving the whole world
We take our bikes
And we run away
As far as short legs let us go
We turn our faces to wind
And spread our wings
To fly to destiny claws
And we are free to go
Riding down the road
Running through the storm
We are free to go
Breaking parents' laws
Loving the whole world
You may think that world is so small
We're running round and round
But here is the car
Take your guitar...
We still have a will to go far
We still have a will to go far
We still have a will to go far
And we are free to go
Riding down the road
Running through the storm
We are free to go
Breaking parents' laws
Loving the whole world
