(Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller)
|
There's no joy in my heart,
|
only sorrow
|
And I'm sad
|
as a man can be
|
I sit alone in the darkness
|
of my lonely room
|
And this room
|
is a prison to me
|
|
I look at window
|
and what to I see
|
I see a bird
|
way up in the tree
|
I want to be free free
|
Free - ee - ee - ee
|
I want to be free
|
like the bird in the tree
|
|
What good are my eyes,
|
they can't see you
|
And my arms,
|
they can't hold so tight
|
I have two lips
|
that are yearning,
|
but they're no good to me
|
Cause I know I can't kiss you tonight
|
|
I look at window
|
and what to I see
|
I see a bird
|
way up in the tree
|
I want to be free free
|
Free - ee - ee - ee
|
I want to be free
|
like the bird in the tree
|
I want to be free
|
like the bird in the tree
|

I Want To Be Free
