[00:01.24] Like a bird, on the wire [00:07.77] Like a drunk in a, midnight choir [00:13.87] I have tried, in my way, to be free [00:24.98] Like a worm, on a hook [00:30.33] Like a knight from some old fashioned book [00:36.73] I have saved, all my ribbons, for thee [00:44.52] [00:49.48] If I, if I have been unkind [01:00.26] I hope that you, can just let it go by [01:11.42] If I, if I have been untrue [01:21.77] I hope you know, it was never to you! [01:31.72] Like a baby, stillborn [01:37.46] Like a beast, with his horn [01:43.00] I have torn, everyone, who reached out for me [01:54.07] But I swear, by this song [01:59.53] And by all that I have done wrong [02:06.76] I will make it all, up to thee [02:12.89] [02:17.36] I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch [02:28.61] He said to me, "you must not ask for so much" [02:39.29] And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door [02:50.53] She cried to me, "hey why not ask for more" [02:59.72] Oh, like a bird, on the wire [03:05.37] Like a drunk, in a midnight choir [03:11.02] I have tried, in my way, to be free!
