(Intro)
(Verse 1)
I wish I knew how, it would feel to be free
I wish I could break, all the chains holding me
I wish I could see, everything I had to see
Sing it loud, sing it clear, for the whole round world to hear
(Verse 2)
I wish I could share, all the love that's in my heart
Remove all the bars, that keep us apart
I wish you knew, how it would feel to be me
Then you'd see, and agree, everyone should be free
(Guitar Solo)
(Verse 3)
I wish I could give, all I'm long---ing to give
I wish I could live, like I'm longing to live
I wish I could do everything that I could do
Though I'm way overdue, I'd be start--ing new
(Verse 4)
I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
How sweet it would be if I found I could fly
I'd soar to the sun and look down at the sea
And I'd sing, cause I know *echo and repeated*
(Guitar Solo 2)
(Outro)
I sing because I know
I sing because I know
I sing because I know
Everyone should be free.
