When you're weary, feeling small, 
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all; 
I'm on your side. 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.
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.
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.
Sail on silvergirl, 
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
