Bridge Over Troubled Water

Bridge Over Troubled Water

    When you*re weary¹, feeling small, when tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all. I*m on your side, oh, when times get rough, and friends just can*t be found. Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down. Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down. When you*re down and out, when you*re on the street, when evening falls so hard, I will comfort you. I*ll take your part, oh, when darkness comes, and pain is all around. Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down. Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down.
    Sail on, silver girl, sail on by. Your time has come to shine; all your dreams are on their way. See how they shine. Oh, if you need a friend, I*m sailing right behind. Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease² your mind.
