"I Want To Be Free" lyrics
"I Want To Be Free"
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 out my window
And what do I see?
I see a bird
Way up in a tree
I want to be free (Oh yes), free (Oh yes)
Free
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Wanna be free)
Oh, what good are my eyes? They can't see you
And my arms, they can't hold you 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 out my window
And what do I see?
I see a bird
Way up in a tree
I want to be free (Oh yes), free (Oh yes)
Free
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Want to be free)
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Want to be free)

My baby beside me at the wheel

Cruisin' and playin' the radio
With no particular place to go
Ridin' along...
