two crows on a wire
Like two birds on a wire,
like two drunks in the midnight choir....
two crows on a wire
Like two birds on a wire,
like two drunks in the midnight choir....

Favourites are never forgotten, me amigo -( the Latin version would be awsome - but English remains the language I continue to have the most trouble with in a technical sense ... :-)
Warmest greetings from a place where, today, we respectfully remember the things that should never be forgotten

Here are the complete lyrics of this beautiful Leonard Cohen song: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, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.
Like a baby, stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
and by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
he said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
Oh like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free.

I (auch) have tried, in my way, to be true -but now: I simply wonder - what are those two crows talking about?
Greetings from the northwest corner of Canadian legend Leonard Cohen's Heimat ... :-)
