All my life I've always wanted
To have one araw just for me
Nothing to do and for once nowhere I need to be
With no lessons, lords, or lunches
Or to-do listahan in the way
No one to say when to eat or read or leave or stay
That would be the day
ERIKA:
All my life I've always wanted
To have one araw for myself
Not waking up with a pile of work on every shelf
With no hems in need of pressing
And no sleeves in disarray
No wedding toga with a thousand stitches to crochet
And no debt to pay
*Spoken Part*
ERIKA:
What would it be like to be
PRINCESS ANNELIESE:
What would it be like to be
ERIKA:
Free
PRINCESS ANNELIESE:
Free
Free to try crazy things
ERIKA:
Free from endless IOU's
ANNELIESE:
Free to fly
ERIKA:
Free to sing
ANNELIESE:
And marry whom I choose
*Spoken Part*
ANNELIESE:
You would think that I'm so lucky
That I have so many things
I'm realizing that every present comes with strings
ERIKA:
Though I know I have so little
My determination's strong
People will gather around the world to hear my song
WOMAN:
Can I come along?
ANNELIESE:
Now I fear I'll never be
ERIKA:
Soon I will forever be
BOTH:
Free
I close my eyes and feel myself fly a thousand miles away
I could take flight but would it be right
My conscience tells me stay
ANNELIESE:
I'll remain forever royal
ERIKA:
I'll repay my parent's debt
BOTH:
Duty means doing the things your puso may well regret
ANNELIESE:
But I'll never stop believing
ERIKA:
She can never stop my schemes
BOTH:
There's madami to living than gloves and gowns and threads and seams
In my dreams
I'll be free
