bird on T和wire (live in London)

Like a bird on the wire,
像一隻落在電線上的鳥
like a drunk in a midnight choir
像個午夜唱詩班的酒鬼
I have tried in my way to be free.
我試過用我的方式獲得自由
Like a worm on a hook,
像一個魚鉤上的誘餌
like a knight from some old fashioned book
像從老舊書本里走來的騎士
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
我為你保存所有的絲帶
If I,if I have been unkind,
如果，如果我變得刻薄
I hope that you can just let it go by.
我希望你能一笑而過
If I,if I have been untrue
如果，如果我不在真誠
I hope you know it was never to you.
我希望你知道絕不對你
Like a baby,stillborn,
像個嬰兒，胎死腹中
like a beast with his horn
像一隻獨角獸
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
我撕裂所有對我伸出援手的人
But I swear by this song
但我以這首歌
and by all that I have done wrong
和我所有寫過的歌發誓
I will make it all up to thee.
我會對你不計前嫌
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
我看見一個乞丐倚在他的木拐杖上
he said to me,You must not ask for so much.
他對我說，你不必要求太多
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
而一個漂亮的女人倚在她陰暗的門上
she cried to me,Hey,why not ask for more?
她哭著說，嘿，為什麼你不索要更多呢？
Oh like a bird on the wire,
哦就像一隻落在電線上的鳥
like a drunk in a midnight choir i have tried in my way to be free.x.x.
像午夜唱詩班的酒鬼我試過用我的方式獲得自由
