I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to Be Free
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break all the chains holding 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 bars 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, I'm longing to give
And I wish I could live, like I'm longing to live
And I wish I could do all the things I can do
Though I'm way overdue, I'd be starting to move
Well I wish I could be like a bird up in the sky
How sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Well I'd soar to the sun then I'd look down at the sea
Then I'd sing cause I'd know
Yes I'd sing cause I'd know
Sing cause I know
I know I'm free, yeah
Yes I know I'm free...
I wish I could break all the chains holding 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 bars 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, I'm longing to give
And I wish I could live, like I'm longing to live
And I wish I could do all the things I can do
Though I'm way overdue, I'd be starting to move
Well I wish I could be like a bird up in the sky
How sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Well I'd soar to the sun then I'd look down at the sea
Then I'd sing cause I'd know
Yes I'd sing cause I'd know
Sing cause I know
I know I'm free, yeah
Yes I know I'm free...
