You don't own me anymore
What am I still fighting for?
You don't own me anymore
Why am I still crying?

You gotta lot of nerve
Staking a claim on me
Taking my heart away
Making a girl believe

That in a lovesick blur
All of the perfect words
She would belong to you
You would belong to her

Now I learned my lesson
Love is not possession

You don't own me anymore
What am I still fighting for?
You don't own me anymore
Why am I still crying?

My head and my heart seem to never agree
'Cause my head knows it's best that you set me free
My heart says that nothing will satisfy me
After so many years, so many tears

Your love is serial
All of my sympathy
To the poor victim the
Lover who follows me

One more admonition
Your new requisition

So, when she fills my place
And when her love grows deep
Remember this, my dear
She isn't yours to keep

And you don't own me anymore
Nothing left worth fighting for
No, you don't own me anymore
Why am I still crying?
