Drifting close to sleep sullenly staring at the ceiling
I'm twisting and I'm turning but I just can't shift the feeling
That somehow I'm missing out, or just doing it wrong
I suppose its pretty normal to feel a little empty
But it seems like lately I've been feeling a little lonely
Seems like I'm reminded of you, by any old song
What does it mean to want to be free
To live out all your dreams
And what does it mean to say I love you
To the person it means the most
And what does it mean to live the good life
Nobody knows
What does it mean, these three words
This feeling, what does it mean
If I could only a get a grip, a little understanding
Of the feeling I can't shake or why it feels so haunting
Then maybe I could sit down and just think this through
And I suppose I sort of wished that I lived behind the screen
And my perfect life would be scored in every scene
And I'd always know what to say when talking to you
What does it mean to want to be free
To live out all your dreams
And what does it mean to say I love you
To the person it means the most
And what does it mean to live the good life
Nobody knows
What does it mean, these three words
This feeling
You cut the ties to what you held dear
You let go of the rope I held to keep you near
Now its questions and answers, questions and answers
Mistakes and solutions on this stage where we're dancers
What does it mean to want to be free
To live out all your dreams
And what does it mean to say I love you
To the person it means the most
And what does it mean to live the good life
Nobody knows
What does it mean, these three words
This feeling, what does it mean
