I'll be your bridge on troubled water
I will lay me down
(Clay):
When you're weary, feelin' 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
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 silver girl)
Sail on by (sail on by)
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
(see how it shines) See how it shines
Oh, if you need a friend
Look around, I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind, your mind
(ease) Ease your mind!
