Queen - I Want to Break Free Lyrics

I want to break free, I want to break free
I want to break free from your lies
You're so self satisfied
I don't need you, I want to break free
God knows, God knows I want to break free

I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love for the first time
This time I know, it's for real
I've fallen in love, yeah
God knows, God knows I've fallen in love

It's strange but it's true, hey
I can't get over the way
You love me like you do
But I have to be sure
When I walk out that door

Oh, how I want to be free, baby
Oh, how I want to break free
Oh, how I want to break free

But life still goes on
I can't get used to
Living without, living without
Living without you, by my side

I don't want to live alone, yeah
God knows, got to make it on my own
So baby, can't you see? Yeah

God knows I want to
God knows I want to
God knows I want to break free

  One major interpretation is that Queen is singing about being with someone of their own gender.
