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.
