[00:22.44]Like a bird on the wire
[00:28.32]Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[00:32.95]I have tried in my way to be free
[00:43.57]Like a worm on a hook
[00:48.61]Like a knight in some old-fashioned book
[00:54.11]I have saved all my ribbons for thee
[01:05.90]If I，if I have been unkind
[01:15.62]I hope that you can just let it go by
[01:26.20]If I, if I have been untrue
[01:37.62]I hope you know it was not to you.
[01:46.53]Like a baby, stillborn
[01:52.07]Like a beast with his horn
[01:57.20]I have torn everyone who reached out for me
[02:07.82]But I swear by this song
[02:13.00]And by all that I have done wrong
[02:18.40]I will make it all up to thee.
[02:30.40]I saw a beggar standing on his wooden crutch
[02:40.53]He said to me, "Do not ask for so much."
[02:51.07]And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
[03:00.50]She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
[03:10.33]Like a bird on the wire
[03:15.83]Like a drunk in some poor midnight choir
[03:21.00]I have tried in my way to be free
