Subject: RE: My Misheard Lyrics Are Way Better
In "Colours" there is a couplet I always heard as:
Freedom is a word I rarely use without thinking
Of the times when I've been low.
Quite profound that: freedom carries with it a risk of failure and the singer thinks it so valuable he is prepared to pay that price.
But is is really "of the times when I've been loved" - which is barely beyond adolescent sighing.
