Lyrics Bird On A Wire - Jimmy Barnes and Troy Cassar-Daley with Bella
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,
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,
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.
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.
