Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say I'm crazy
But I don't have the time (time time)
Stargate (time time)
Uh, five

You say I'm crazy
But I don't have the time (time time)
Yeah (time time)
C'mon

I I I
I have been runnin' 'round all after you
You you you
You have been playin' me for a fool
My my my
My situation's got me all confused
What what what
What should I be holdin' out for you

We
It could have been so easily
Aoh
It's hurtin' me
Can't you see

You say I'm crazy
But I don't have the time
I'm wincin' lately
'Cause you're always on my mind
I can't always be what you want me to be
If I'm not for you
The baby set me free

Uh uh uh

Overall Meaning

The person is confused about their situation and doesn't know what they should be holding out for. They are constantly thinking about and sexually attracted to this person, but they realize that they can't always be what the other person wants them to be. They are asking the other person to set them free if they can't be with them.


The chorus repeats the line "You say I'm crazy, but I don't have the time" over and over again.

The song ends with the person asking the other to come to them and saying that they want to rock them all night long.


Overall, the lyrics to "Set Me Free" are about a confusing and frustrating love situation, with the chorus serving as a defiant and determined statement from the singer.
