Lyrics

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
