When youre weary, feelin small
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all.
Im on your side, oh, when times get rough
And friends just cant be found.

Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.

When youre down and out, when youre on the street
When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you.
Ill take your part, oh when darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will lay me down.

Sail on children, sail on by
Your time has come to shine, all their dreams are on their way
See how they shine, oh when you need a friend
Im sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled waters
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled waters,
I will ease your mind.
Ill ease your mind.
