Something's got to be done about the way I seem to act
You haven't followed through on our little pact
But I abide by all the rules, and I think you knew I would
But now its come the time to change, and I knew I could

Chorus:
All I need is to be carefree
A friend once said to me, you've gotta let yourself be
All I need is to be carefree
All I need is to be carefree

Babe lets hit a movie, and watch the big screen
Oh you've got plans tonight, thats fine with me
Cause I'll just call another friend, you know I can make plans too
I'll end up with twice the fun and no mess with you

Chorus

I thought you heard me say I needed time
And I thought I saw you with another guy
Things have changed thats not a lie
But now I'll give a chance and see

Oh its been a while now, and things are going great
I've thrown away the pieces of the me I used to hate
I've got the time to do the things that I've always loved to do
I'll use the words I've written down to guide you and me through

Chorus
