Bird On A Wire


Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in an old midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight been down in some old fashioned book
It was the shape of our love that twisted me
If I have been unkind, if I have been unkind
Oh I hope you can find the way to let it all go right on by
If I have been un..., if I have been untrue, if I have been untrue
Just that I thought a lover had to be some kind of liar too

Like a little 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 that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.

I don't cry, don't..., don't cry, I don't cry no more
It's all over now, it's over babe, don't cry no more
I say don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry anymore
It's over, it's finished, it's completed, it has..., it has been paid for.

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in some old midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Lyric, Lenard Cohen
(as performed by Joe Cocker)
