If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now
Cause there's too many places I've got to see
But, if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
Cause I'm as free
as a bird, now
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change

Bye, bye baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah
Though this feeling I can't change
But, please, don't take it so badly
Cause Lord knows I'm to blame
And if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
Cause I'm as free as a bird, now

And this bird you never change
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
Lord help me, I can't change

Lord I can't change
Won't you fly high free bird
