Bird on the wire<\/font><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/font><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n By Leonard Cohen<\/font><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/font><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/font><\/span><\/p>\n Like a bird on the wire, Like a baby, stillborn, Oh like a bird on the wire,
\nLike a drunk in a midnight choir
\nI have tried in my way to be free.
\nLike a worm on a hook,
\nLike a knight from some old fashioned book
\nI have saved all my ribbons for thee.
\nIf i, if I have been unkind,
\nI hope that you can just let it go by.
\nIf i, if I have been untrue
\nI hope you know it was never to you.<\/p>\n
\nLike a beast with his horn
\nI have torn everyone who reached out for me.
\nBut I swear by this song
\nAnd by all that I have done wrong
\nI will make it all up to thee.
\nI saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
\nHe said to me, you must not ask for so much.
\nAnd a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
\nShe cried to me, hey, why not ask for more? <\/p>\n
\nLike a drunk in a midnight choir
\nI have tried in my way to be free<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n
