[00:15.110] Like a bird on the wire
[00:20.540]
[00:22.630] Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[00:28.790] I have tried in my way to be free
[00:39.770]
[00:43.170] Like a worm on the hook
[00:48.790]
[00:50.860] Like a knight in old fashioned book
[00:56.040]
[00:57.580] I have saved all my ribbons for thee
[01:06.180]
[01:15.440] And if I if I have been unkind
[01:24.740]
[01:25.590] I hope that you will just let it go by
[01:35.270]
[01:43.250] And if I if I have been untrue
[01:53.570] I hope you know that it was not to you
[02:05.170]
[02:05.770] Like a baby stillborn
[02:13.460]
[02:15.160] Like a beast with his horn
[02:21.510]
[02:22.230] I have torn everyone who reached out for me
[02:32.820]
[02:36.840] But I swear by this song
[02:42.780]
[02:43.590] And by all I have done wrong
[02:50.490]
[02:51.130] That I will I will make it all all up to thee
[03:00.400]
[03:10.160] I saw a man a beggar leaning on his crutch
[03:15.080]
[03:20.320] He said to me
[03:25.780] Why do you ask for so much
[03:31.020]
[03:37.720] There was a woman who've been leaning in the door
[03:44.880]
[03:50.650] She said
[03:51.600] Why not why not why not why not ask for more
[03:59.880]
[04:00.590] Like a bird on the wire
[04:08.040]
[04:10.500] Like a drunk in a midnight choir
[04:15.190]
[04:16.310] I have tried in my way to be free
