Elvis Presley
I Want To Be Free (Alt. Takes 3 & 4)
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
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
I want to be free
Like the bird in the tree
I want to be free
Like the bird in the tree
