The Magic Lanterns The Bridge Lyrics
The Bridge by The Magic Lanterns
The bridge that we built is falling down
Less of a bind more of a whimper
What's left on either bank is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that broke this bridges heart
The bridge was built naively without so much as a plan
But believe me when I say the work was done with honest hands
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
With time the bridge its strength no more to carry heavy loads
Which in convoy we passed over it along newly beaten roads
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone...
Less of a bind more of a whimper
What's left on either bank is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that broke this bridges heart
The bridge was built naively without so much as a plan
But believe me when I say the work was done with honest hands
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
With time the bridge its strength no more to carry heavy loads
Which in convoy we passed over it along newly beaten roads
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone
Oh she's gone...
