And I wish I knew how
|
It would feel to be free
|
I wish that I could break
|
All the chains holding me
|
I wish I could say
|
All the things that I'd like to say
|
Say 'em loud say 'em clear
|
For the whole round world to hear
|
I wish I could share
|
All the love that's in my heart
|
Remove every doubt that keeps us apart
|
And I wish you could know
|
What it means to be me
|
Then you'd see and agree
|
Every man should be free
|
|
I wish I could live
|
|
Like I'm longin' to live
|
I wish I could give
|
What I'm longin' to give
|
And I wish I could do
|
All the things I'd like to do
|
You know they still are quite a few
|
Yes Sir...
|
And I'm way way over due
|
|
I wish I could be like a bird up in the sky
|
How sweet it would be
|
If I found out I could fly
|
So long to the sun
|
And look down upon Ihe sea
|
And I sing because I know
|
how it feels to be
|
And I sing because I know
|
how it feels to be
|
And I sing because I know
|
how it feels to be free
|
Yeah
|
