Jennifer Warnes - Bird On A Wire Lyrics
by Leonard CohenLike a bird on the wire,like a drunk in a midnight choirI have tried in my way to be free.Like a fish on a hook,like a knight from an old fashioned bookI have saved all my ribbons for thee.If I have been unkind,I hope that you could just let it go by.And if I have been untrueI hope you know it was never to you. No, noLike a baby, stillborn,like a beast with his hornI have torn everyone who reached out for me.But I swear by this songBy all I have done wrongI'll make it all up to you. Yes I willI saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,H called out to me,
