(Verse 1) Neon lights fading in the rearview mirror Silver stars shining, making everything clearer I don't need a crowd, I don't need a name Just a little freedom, I’m out of the game (Pre-Chorus) Got a dusty dream tucked in my coat "C'est la vie," that’s the only note Stumble a bit, but I wear it like a charm Keeping my kindness under my arm (Chorus) Walking my way, dancing all alone Building a kingdom on my own Don’t need your rules, I’m caught in the swing I’m the puppet master, I pull the string "Take it easy, baby," just let it be This is the rhythm of being free (Bridge) Silver hair, but the fire’s still bright Wink at the mirror in the pale moonlight Sixty years gone, but I’m still in the groove Watch my shadow, watch me move (Chorus) Walking my way, dancing all alone Building a kingdom on my own Don’t need your rules, I’m caught in the swing I’m the puppet master, I pull the string "Take it easy, baby," just let it be This is the rhythm of being free (Outro) Don't need a sermon, don't need a line Just see the freedom in this back of mine If you’re laughing, then I’m doing alright Just a free soul, dancing through the night
