Lyrics

Like a bird on the 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 from some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee If I've been unkind I hope that you can just let, let it go by If I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you Like a bird, free There's a bird, free Like a baby, still born 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 Don't cry no more Don't cry It's completed, oh, it's paining It's been paid for Like a bird, free There's a bird, free Like a bird, free There's a bird, free Like a bird, free There's a bird, free Like a bird, free There's a bird, free Oh, like a bird, free On a wire, free Like a drunk, free In a midnight choir, free Don't cry, free Don't cry, free Like a bird, free Like a bird, free Free Free Free ...
