I Want To Be Free lyrics

Artist  : Elvis Presley 
Song : 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
