Lyrics Bird On a Wire - Jennifer Warnes
Like
a
bird
on
a
wire
Like
a
drunk
in
a
midnight
choir
I
have
tried
in
my
way
to
be
free
Like
a
fish
on
a
hook
Like
a
knight
from
an
old
fashioned
book
I
have
saved
all
my
ribbons
for
thee
If
I
have
been
unkind,
mm-hmm
I
hope
that
you
could
just
let
it
go
by
(Ooh,
let
it
all
go
by,
baby)
And
if
I
have
been
untrue
I
hope
you
know
it
was
never
to
you,
no,
no
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
By
all
I
have
done
wrong
I'll
make
it
all
up
to
you,
yes,
I
will
I
saw
a
beggar
leaning
on
his
wooden
crutch
He
called
out
to
me,
"Don't
ask
for
so
much"
And
a
young
man
leaning
on
his
darkened
door
He
cried
out
to
me,
"Hey,
why
not
ask
for
more?"
Like
a
(like
a
bird)
bird
on
a
wire
(on
a
wire)
Like
a
drunk
in
a
midnight
choir
I
have
tried
in
my
way
to
be
free
