Bridge Out
A song of hope and of community.
Bridge Out
I’m floating in the air
Turning on the wind
Looking for tomorrow
Tell me when does it begin
I’m walking through a field
Of grass as tall as me
Not as a child, but as a man
Still I cannot see
I’m running through the rainSo I drove to my hometown
It thunders now and then
This storm will be moving on
I just don't know when
Just to be with my old friends
Things sure turned out different
Than the way they might have been
There’s as bridge outThere’s a birthday up ahead
I’m falling
It’s time to sink or swim
In this muddy water
Bridge out
I’m calling
It just might be your name
(While I’m falling)
Into this muddy water
There’s a heaven I know it’s said
Supper in the evening
Dreams of sugar plums in bed
You’ve got your mother and your father
Some friends along the way
They’ll take your hand in the darkness
Help to light your day
Sometimes it’s so hard to believeI drove to my hometown
It’s hard to know what’s right and true
Sometimes it’s even hard to see
You need me and I need you
Just to be with my old friends
Things sure turned out different
Than the way they might have been
There’s as bridge out
I’m falling
It’s time to sink or swim
In this muddy water
Bridge out
I’m calling
It just might be your name
(It just might be your name)
(It just might be your name)
While I’m falling
Into this muddy water
