Pearls Before Swine - Bird on a Wire текст песни

Исполнитель: Pearls Before Swine

альбом: Rhino Hi-Five: Pearls Before Swine


Like a bird on a 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
And if I, if I have been unkind
Well, I hope, I hope that you
I hope that you let it go by
If I, if I have been untrue
Well, I hope you know
It was never, never to you
Like a baby, stillborn
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
And 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 on his wooden crutch
And he cried out to me
"You are not to ask for so much"
I saw a pretty lady in her darkened door
And she said to me
"Why not ask for more?"
Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
