"Bridge Over Troubled Water" lyrics

"Bridge Over Troubled Water"
(originally by Simon & Garfunkel)

You know, it's sometimes so hard
For a man to explain all the things he'd do
For the woman he loves, to the woman he loves
Well, fortunately, someone has written a song
That says exactly what I'd wanna say
Mmm

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I'll dry them all, all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Oh yes, I will
Lay my body down, ooh
Let you cross on over

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I'll comfort you, oh
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled, troubled water
I will lay me down, oh
Lying like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down
Oh yes, I will
Lay my body down
Let you cross on over
Oh yes, I will, ooh

Oh, sail on, silver girl
(Sail on by)
Oh, sail on by
(Sail on by)
Oh, your time has come, oh, to shine
And all your dreams are on their way, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh, oh (See how they shine)
See how they shine
And if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled, troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Oh, ease your mind

Oh, sail on, silver girl
(Sail on by)
Oh, sail on by, yeah (Sail on, silver girl)
(Sail on by)
Oh, let you cross on over (Sail on, silver girl)
(Sail on by)
(Sail on, silver girl) Like a bridge over
(Sail on by) Troubled water
(Sail on, silver girl) Lay my body down
(Sail on by)
(Sail on, silver girl) Sail on, sail on, sail on by
Oh yes (Sail on)
