Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're weary
Feelin' small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
[Verse 2]
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
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Sail on, silver girl, sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
[Verse 6]
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailin' right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
