Like a bird on a 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, you can just let it go by
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'll 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 out to me, "hey, why not ask for more?"

If i, if i have been unkind
I hope, you can just let it go by
If i have been untrue
It was never to you

Like a bird on a wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
