[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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
