Lyrics

I wish I knew how It would feel to be free I wish I could break All the chains holdin' me And I wish I could say All the things that I should say Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole world to hear I wish I could share All the love that's in my heart Remove all the doubts That keep us apart And I wish you could know What it means to be me Then you'd see and agree That every man should be free I wish I could give All I'm longin' to give And I wish I could live Like I'm longin' to live And I wish I could do All the things that I can do Though I'm way over due I'd be startin' a new Well, I wish I could be Like a bird up in the sky How sweet it would be If I found I could fly Oh, I'd soar high to the sun And I'd look down at the sea Then I'd sing 'cause I know Yes, I sing 'cause I know I sing 'cause I know I know how it feels Yes, I know how it feels
