Lyrics

Free as a Bird

Free as a bird It's the next best thing to be Free as a bird Home, home and dry Like a homing bird I'll fly As a bird on wings Whatever happened to The life that we once knew? Can we really live without each other? Where did we lose the touch That seemed to mean so much? It always made me feel so Free as a bird Like the next best thing to be Free as a bird Home, (home) home and dry Like a homing bird I'll fly As a bird on wings Whatever happened to The life that we once knew? Always made me feel so free Free as a bird Is the next best thing to be Free as a bird Free as a bird Free as a bird Oo-oo-oo Made for John Lennon
