Bird On A Wire (live With Orchestra)

INTRO: Like a bird, on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir. I have tried in my ways to be free. Like a fish, on a hook, like a knight in some old fashioned book. I have saved all my ribbons for thee. And if I, if I have been unkind. I just hope you, will let it go by. And if I, if I have been untrue. I just 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 to 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 young man, leaning on his wooden crutch. He called out to me, don't ask for so much. And a young woman, leaning in her darkened door. She cried out to me, hey why not ask for more. Like a bird, on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir. I have tried in my ways to be free.
