Testo Bird On The Wire

Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my own way to be free. Like a worm on a hook, like a knight from some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons just for you And if I have been unkind, I hope that you will let it go by. And if I have been untrue I hope you know it was not 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 all I have done wrong I will make it all up all up to you I saw a beggar man 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 after me, "Hey, why not ask for more?" Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my own way to be free. Oh, I have tried in my own way to be free To be free
