Or technically he is not there, but I hear his voice. Or actually, I don't hear his voice either, but a specific song starts to play in my head. Always in the corridor, always in the morning and in the morning only. Every morning, David Hasselhoff accompanies me and starts to sing his hit song I've been looking for freedom.
I have to say that the song is not in my list of top-10 favorite songs. I haven't heard it for a long time either. Sometimes, for some weird reasons, some random songs pop up in my head - what to do. But today it started to be too much. I had to find out why it is stuck in my head, why it appears always in the corridor. So I googled the lyrics, desperately trying to find some answers. I read them, and listened to the song. That's the moment when my eyes turned wide open. I don't remember never actually listening to lyrics. But now when I see them it obvious - I've been looking for freedom.
I headed down the track
my baggage on my back
I left the city far behind
walkin' down the road
with my heavy load
tryin' to find
some peace of mind
father said you'll be sorry, son
if you leave your home this way
and when you realize
the freedom money buys
you'll come running home some day
I've been looking for freedom
I've been looking so long
I've been looking for freedom
still the search goes on
I've been looking for freedom
since I left my home town
my baggage on my back
I left the city far behind
walkin' down the road
with my heavy load
tryin' to find
some peace of mind
father said you'll be sorry, son
if you leave your home this way
and when you realize
the freedom money buys
you'll come running home some day
I've been looking for freedom
I've been looking so long
I've been looking for freedom
still the search goes on
I've been looking for freedom
since I left my home town
No matter what, the song is still not in my favorite top-10. Nor in top-50. And actually the lyrics are not so special. Sorry David, I'd prefer to continue looking for my freedom without you, so please, get out from my corridor, thankyouverymuch.
