[00:00.52] Like a bird on the wire
[00:05.21] Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[00:09.36] I have tried in my way to be free
[00:17.40] Like a worm on a hook
[00:21.27] Like a knight from some old fashioned book
[00:25.85] I have saved all my ribbons for thee
[00:32.52]
[00:34.71] If I have been unkind
[00:43.13] I hope you can just let it go by
[00:50.98] If I have been untrue
[01:00.25] I hope you know it was never to you
[01:06.85]
[01:08.06] Like a baby still born
[01:12.09] Like a beast with his horn
[01:16.13] I have torn anyone
[01:19.97] Who reached out for me
[01:22.25]
[01:24.24] But I swear by this song
[01:28.54] And by all that I have done wrong
[01:32.60] I will make it all up to thee
[01:38.63]
[01:41.31] I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch
[01:48.83] He said to me
[01:51.60] “You must not ask for so much”
[01:56.88] And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
[02:05.86] She cried to me
[02:08.06] “Hey, why not ask for more”
[02:13.22] Like a bird on the wire
[02:17.76] Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[02:22.15] I have tried in my way to be free
[02:29.71] Like a worm on a hook
[02:33.83] Like a knight from some old fashioned book
[02:38.22] I have saved all my ribbons for thee
[02:47.26]
[00:00.52] Like a bird on the wire
[00:05.21] Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[00:09.36] I have tried in my way to be free
[00:17.40] Like a worm on a hook
[00:21.27] Like a knight from some old fashioned book
[00:25.85] I have saved all my ribbons for thee
[00:32.52]
[00:34.71] If I have been unkind
[00:43.13] I hope you can just let it go by
[00:50.98] If I have been untrue
[01:00.25] I hope you know it was never to you
