Song title Bird On A Wire
Artist Tom Cochrane
like a bird
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
like worm on a hook
like a knight in an old fashioned book
i have saved all my ribbons for you
and if i
if i've been unkind
then i hope that you just let it pass on by
like a baby
like a baby stillborn
like a beast with his horn
i have torn everyone who reached out for me
and i saw a beggar he was leaning on his wooden crutch
then he said to me tom
don't you ask for so much
like a bird
like a bird on a wire
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free
