[al:To Be Free: The Nina Simone Story]
[00:32.92]And I wish I knew how
[00:36.69]It would feel to be free
[00:41.03]I wish I could break
[00:44.23]All the chains holdin' me
[00:48.93]I wish I could say
[00:52.26]All the things that I should say
[00:55.92]Say 'em loud say 'em clear
[00:59.96]For the whole 'round world to hear
[01:04.43]I wish I could share
[01:07.94]All the love that's in my heart
[01:12.39]Remove all the doubts
[01:15.70]That keep us apart
[01:19.89]I wish you could know
[01:23.48]What it means to be me
[01:27.33]Then you'd see and agree
[01:31.13]That every man should be free
[01:35.91]I wish I could give
[01:39.16]All I'm longin' to give
[01:43.61]I wish I could live like I'm longing to live
[01:51.19]I wish I could do all the things that I can do
[01:58.81]And though I'm way over due
[02:02.89]I'd be startin' a new
[02:06.89]Well I wish I could be
[02:10.07]Like a bird up in the sky
[02:14.57]How sweet it would be
[02:18.03]If I found out I could fly
[02:23.01]So long to my song
[02:25.69]And look down upon the sea
[02:29.95]And I sing because I know yeah
[02:33.73]And I sing because I know yeah
[02:37.42]And I sing because I know
[02:41.20]I would know how it feels
[02:44.17]I would know how it feels to be free
[02:49.89]I would know how it feels
[02:52.81]Yes, I would know
[02:54.87]I would know how it feels, how it feels
[03:00.58]To be free, no no
