Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're weary
Feeling small
And tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I am by your side
When times get tough
And friends just can't be found
[Chorus]
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
[Verse 2]
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
Yes, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
[Chorus]
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down
[Verse 3]
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
[Chorus]
Oh, like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down, lay me, lay me, lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me, lay me, lay me, yeah, lay me down
Lay me down
