Couplet 1

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all

Refrain

I'm on your side
Oh when times get rough
And friends just can't
They can't be found
Like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will lay me down

Couplet 2

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
Oh yes I will

Refrain

I'll take your part
Whoa when darkness comes
And pain is all
It's all around
Like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will lay me down

Tag

Like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will lay me down

Couplet 3

So sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come
To shine
And all your dreams
They're on their way

Refrain

See how they shine
Oh if youneed a friend
I'm gonna be sailing
Right behind
Like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Tag

Like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will ease
I'm gonna ease your mind

Tag

And I'll be like a bridge
Over troubled water
I will lay me down
