Bird on the Wire

[ti:Bird on the Wire] [ar:Leonard Cohen] [al:The Complete Studio Albums Collection] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] Bird on the Wire - Leonard Cohen 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 fish on a hook Like a knight From some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee 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 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 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 " Oh like a bird on the wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free
