歌词
Like a bird on the wire
像只栖在电线上的鸟儿
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
像个醉汉，沉浸在午夜的歌唱
I have tried in my way to be free
自由啊，我试着用自己的方式，触碰你
Like a worm on a hook
像挂在钩上的鱼饵
Like a knight in some old-fashioned book
像个骑士，活在旧日之书
I have saved all my ribbons for thee
为你，我攒下所有我的功勋荣光
If I，if I have been unkind
若我曾刻薄顽劣
I hope that you can just let it go by
望你别将它放在心上
If I, if I have been untrue
若我曾虚伪欺骗
I hope you know it was not to you.
望你知晓我本意不是将你刺伤
Like a baby, stillborn
像个初生的柔弱婴儿
Like a beast with his horn
像只野兽，长着绝望尖锐的角
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
我撕扯了所有愿纳我入怀的心
But I swear by this song
但我以这歌声
And by all that I have done wrong
以及所有我犯下的愚妄起誓
I will make it all up to thee.
我会为你把一切补偿
I saw a beggar standing on his wooden crutch
我看见个乞丐，拄着木头拐杖
He said to me, "Do not ask for so much."
他说：切勿渴求太多
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door
一个美貌的女人，斜倚着内里昏暗的门框
She cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
她对我喊道：喂，和不可求更多？
Like a bird on the wire
像只栖在电线上的鸟儿
Like a drunk in some poor midnight choir
像个醉汉，沉浸在午夜乐声的凄凉
I have tried in my way to be free
自由啊，我试着用自己的方式，触碰你
