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 out my window
And what do I see
I see a bird
Way up in a 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 out my window
And what do I see
I see a bird
Way up in a 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
