I WISH I KNEW HOW IT WOULD FEEL TO BE FREE
Words - Billy Taylor - Dick Dallas

I
wish I knew how it would feel to be free. I
wish I could break all these chains holding me. I
wish I could say all the things I should say, say 'em
loud, say 'em clear, for the whole world to hear. I

wish I could share all the love in my heart, re-
move all the bars that still keep us apart. I
wish you could know what it means to be me, then you'd
see, and agree, ev'ry man 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 all the things I can do, though I'm
way overdue, I'd be startin 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 on the sea, then I'd
sing, 'cause I'd know, how it feels to be free.
