Sting: If You Love Somebody Set Them Free[
purchase]
If they don't come back hunt them down and kill them. If they never come back, you weren't meant to be with them, and hopefully someone else will walk in your life. It's sad at first though, setting the one you love free.

ReplyDeleteTo me the song is not about being literally being separated from your loves, but not to tie them down in immaterials ways: routine, expectations, conventions "Tied up in chains you just can't see", to give them personal freedom rather than lock them up in a "gilded cage".
