Free As A Bird
John Lennon · Other Songs - John Lennon
It's the next best thing to me
Free as a bird
Home, home and dry
Like a homing bird I'll fly
Like a bird on wings
Whatever happened to
the love that we once knew
Can we really live without each other
When did we loose the touch
That seemed to mean so much
It always made me feel so
Free, as a bird
It's the next best thing to me
Free as a bird
Home, home and dry
Like a homing bird I'll fly
Like a bird on wings
Whatever happened to
the love that we once knew
Always made me feel so
Free
Free, as a bird
It's the next best thing to me
Free as a bird
Free as a bird
Free as a bird
Free...
