The Bridge - The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown

Everyone who is born is gonna die someday

So you’d better find out what you’re all about

'Fore you come back again

I’m standing here

Never shed a tear

As you’re walking on the bridge

The bridge above the river

The river of your dreams

The bridge is starting to sway

(Starting to sway, starting to sway)

Escalator to the moon make man a dwarf of time

But back here on Earth people blind from birth

Want the Sun to shine

I’m standing here

Never shed a tear

When you’re walking on the bridge

The bridge across the river

The river of your dreams

The bridge is starting to sway

(Starting to sway, starting to sway, starting to sway)

The moon that lies in the water

Breaks as the storm winds blow

But up in the sky the moon rides high

And caused a glow below

I’m standing here

Never shed a tear

As you’re walking on the bridge

The bridge above the river

The river of your dreams

The bridge is starting to sway

(Starting to sway, starting to sway, starting to sway)

Oh, will it ever set you free?

You’re living in a land of fantasy

(The bridge across the river, the bridge across the river)

They say that all roads lead to Rome

(The bridge across the river, the bridge across the river)

But you know that place ain’t your home

(The bridge across the river, the bridge across the river)

You’re running away from yourself

(The bridge across the river, the bridge across the river)

You’ve ended up as someone else

In the ocean of your dreams

Lost inside the heart’s caress

You can feel the endless fields

Of opening in your souls

Let go of all the future

And then see it coming fast

Take hold of what you are

Leave behind the past

Let go of all religion

Let go of hopes and fears

Let go of who you thought you were, for all these years

It’s just a story, it’s just a game

You’re standing on the bridge…
