But Stella can't you see?
Your life's not the way it's supposed to be...
Stella, can't you see?
If you're not happy, set him free.

She gets no satisfaction, she smiles on the outside, but inside she ain't laughin'...
Never stays at home, cuz she don't wanna wait for something she knows won't happen...
She tries to hide it well, but she knows damn well that she can't hide it from me...
The hidden agony of living a lie and hoping no one will see.

Stella can't you see?
Your life's not the way it's supposed to be...
Stella, can't you see?
If you're not happy, set him free.

Well, excuse me for sayin' what's on my mind...
But it's only cuz I care.

(solo)

Stella can't you see?
Your life's not the way it's supposed to be...
Stella, can't you see?
If you're not happy, set him free.

Oh, Stella can't you see?
Your life's not the way it's supposed to be...
Stella, can't you see?
If you're not happy, set him free.

Lost in a waking dream, all of her prayers have gone unanswered....
