There shall be no more tears or frustration
In the eyes of a girl or a boy
May we play and be dancing our worries away
So we only must cry tears of joy
We don't need no permission for freedom
And we don't no crown to be kings
Like the child who is running right into the wild
'Till the day comes it's spreading the wings
Wild birds are born to fly
We only sing in freedom
Wild birds are born to fly
Long enough it's been the day
Wild birds are born to fly
To the sky higher and higher
To the place our hearts desire
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher, higher
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher
Wild birds are born to fly
I see faces in great desperation
I see people imprisoned in jail
There's no bars that will keep him from the chasing the stars
But they still tell their unhappy tale, yeah
So I tell him to sit in the sunshine
And I ask him to smell all the hay
And I (?)
Only singing and praising the day
Wild birds are born to fly
We only sing in freedom
Wild birds are born to fly
Long enough it's been the day
Wild birds are born to fly
To the sky higher and higher
To the place our hearts desire
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher, higher
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher
Wild birds are born to fly
There shall be no more tears or frustration
In the eyes of a girl or a boy
May we play and be dancing our worries away
So we only must cry tears of joy
Wild birds are born to fly
We only sing in freedom
Wild birds are born to fly
Long enough it's been the day
Wild birds are born to fly
To the sky higher and higher
To the place our hearts desire
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher, higher
Wild birds are born to fly
Higher
Wild birds are born to fly
Wild birds are born to fly
