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 waters...
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters...
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 waters...
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters...
I will lay me down.
Sail on children...sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All their dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
Oh when you need a friend...
I'm sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled waters...
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled waters...
I will ease your mind.
