Birds on the Wire + One Seagull

Like a bird on the wire, 
like a drunk in a midnight choir 
I have tried in my way to be free. 
Like a worm on a hook, 
like a knight from some old fashioned book 
I have saved all my ribbons for thee. 
If I have been unkind, 
I hope that you can just let it go by. 
If I have been untrue 
I hope you know it was never to you. 


~ Leonard Cohen
