Pearls Before Swine

Bird on a Wire

Cohen

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.

Oh, 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.
