leonard cohen - bird on the wire (live at the isle of wight) lyrics
like a bird on a wire
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free
like a worm on the hook
like a knight from some old-fashioned book
i have saved all my ribbons for thee
and if i have been unkind
i hope that you will just let it go by
and if i have been untrue
i hope you know it was never to you
like a babe stillborn
like a beast with his h-rn
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 the pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
she cried to 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 way to be free
