Andy Williams
 Words and Music by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart


 I want to be free like the bluebird flying by me
 Like the waves out on the blue sea
 Your love has to tie me, don't try me, say goodbye

 I want to be free, don't say you love me, say you like me
 But when I need you beside me
 Stay close enough to guide me, confide in me, oh-oh-oh-oh

 I want to hold your hand, walk along the sand
 Laughin' in the sun, always havin' fun
 Doin' all those things without any strings to tie me down

 I want to be free like the warm September wind, babe
 Say you'll always be my friend , babe
 We can make it to the end, babe
 Again, babe, I gotta say

 I want to be free
 I want to be free
 I want to be free
