I Wish I Knew

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free

Wish I could break the all the chains holding me

I wish I could say everything I have to say

Say it loud, say it clear, for the whole round world to hear

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

I wish I could give all I'm longing to give

I wish I could live like I'm longing to live

I wish I could do everything that I should do

Though I'm way over due, I'd be starting anew

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 everyone should be free
