가사
[Verse 1]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
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?"
[Outro]
Oh like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
[Guitar solo]
[sax solo]
[Bridge}
If I have been unkind
if I have been unkind
Oh, I hope you can find the way to let it all go right on by
if I have been untrue
if I have been untrue
It’s just that I thought a lover had to be some kind of liar too
[Verse]
Like a little baby stillborn
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
But I swear by this song
By all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee
[Chorus]
Don’t cry, don’t, don’t cry, don’t cry no more
It’s all over now, it’s over babe, don’t cry no more
I say don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry anymore
It’s over. It’s finished. It’s completed. It has, it has been paid for.
[Verse]
Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in some old midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
