On Freedom

Birds flying high:
You know how I feel.
Sun in the sky:
You know how I feel.
Breeze drifting on by:
You know how I feel.
Its a new dawn.
Its a new day.
Its a new life.
For me.
And I'm feeling good.

Fish in the sea:
You know how I feel.
River running free:
You know how I feel.
Blossom on a tree:
You know how I feel.
Its a new dawn.
Its a new day.
Its a new life.
For me.
And I'm feeling good.

Dragonfly out in the sun.
You know what I mean, don't you know?
Butterflies all having fun.
You know what I mean.
Sleep in peace when day is done.
That's what I mean.
Its a new day.
Its a new world.
Its a bold world.
For me.
And I'm feeling good.
