[00:00.090] |
Like a bird on the wire,like a drunk in a midnight choir |
[00:13.350] |
I have tried in my way to be free. |
[00:24.860] |
Like a worm (fish) on a hook,like a knight from some old fashioned book |
[00:36.280] |
I have saved all my ribbons for thee. |
[00:49.310] |
If I, if I have been unkind,I hope that you can just let it go by. |
[01:10.980] |
If I, if I have been untrue,I hope you know it was never to you. |
[01:30.880] |
Like a baby, still born,like a beast with his horn |
[01:42.220] |
I have torn everyone who reached out for me. |
[01:53.710] |
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong |
[02:06.680] |
I will make it all up to thee. |
[02:17.020] |
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch, |
[02:27.680] |
he said to me, "You must not ask for so much." “” |
[02:38.220] |
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door, |
[02:48.870] |
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?" “ ” |
[02:57.430] |
Oh like a bird on the wire, |
[03:04.970] |
like a drunk in a midnight choir have tried in my way to be free. |
