Bird On a Wire
Lyricist:Leonard Cohen
Like a bird on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free Like a fish on a hook, like a knight in some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee
And if I, if I have been unkind I just hope you will let it go by And if I, if I have been untrue I just hope you know it was never to you
Like a baby still born, like a beast with his horn Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I have torn everyone who reached out to me But I swear by this song, by all I have done wrong I'll make it all up to thee
I saw a young man leaning on his wooden crutch And he called out to me, 'Don't ask for so much' And a young woman leaning in her darkened door And she called out to me, 'Hey, why not ask for more?'
Like a bird on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free
