Bird On A Wire lyrics

Artist	Stina Nordenstam
Album(s)	People Are Strange

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 worm on a hook
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee

If I have been unkind
Please just let it go by
If I have been untrue
It was never to you

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

It was never to you

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
