Bird On the Wire |
Like a bird on the wire, |
like a drunk in a midnight choir |
I have tried in my way to be free. |
Like a worm on a hook, |
like a knight from some old fashioned book |
I have saved all my ribbons for thee. |
If I, if I have been unkind, |
I hope that you can just let it go by. |
If I, if I have been untrue |
I hope you know it was never to you. |
Like a baby, stillborn, |
like a beast with his horn |
I have torn everyone who reached out for me. |
But I swear by this song |
and by all that I have done wrong |
I will make it all up to thee. |
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch, |
he said to me, «You must not ask for so much.» |
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door, |
she cried to me, «Hey, why not ask for more?» |
Oh like a bird on the wire, |
like a drunk in a midnight choir |
I have tried in my way to be free. |
