Bird on a Wire Songtext

von The Neville Brothers

Like a bird on the 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, been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it, let it go by.
If I, have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.

Like a bird free
There's a bird free

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.

Don't cry no more don't cry
It's completed, oh it's finished
It;s been faithful

Like a bird free
There's a bird free
Like a bird free
There's a bird free

Like a bird free
There's a bird free
Like a bird free
There's a bird free

Like a bird (free) on the wire, (free)
Like a drunk (free) in a midnight choir (free)
Don't cry (free) don't cry (free)
Like a bird free (free) free
