Lyrics
When you’re wea and ry,
feel in’ on the small,
when tears are in
your eyes,
I’ll dry them fort all;
I’m on your side.
Oh, when times get rough,
and friends just can’t
be
found,
like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will lay me down.
When you’re down and out,
when you’re on the street,
when eve ning falls
so hard,
I will com fort you.
I’ll take your part.
Oh, when dark ness comes,
and pain is all
a
round,
like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will lay me down.
When you’re trou bled wa ter,
I will lay me down.
Sail on, sil ver 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 sail ing right
be
hind.
Like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge
o ver trou bled wa ter,
I will ease your mind.
