Lyrics

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 some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee If I have been unkind I hope that you can just let, let it go by If I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you Like a bird, free as a bird, free Like a baby stillborn Like a beast with his horn I have torn every one 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 Don't cry no more, don't cry It's completed, oh it's finished It's been paid for Like a bird, free as a bird, free Like a bird, free as a bird, free Like a bird, free on a wire, free Like a bird free, free, free
