I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free

Richard lamb, william taylor

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
It 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'll still miss part of you
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 my song
And look down upon ihe sea
And i sing because i know
I would see you
I sing because i know
I would see you
And i sing because i know
I would see you
To be free yea
