Lyric I Want to Be Free

(words & music by 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
