Lucy Wainwright Roche - Bridge текст песни

Here we are, two across a river--
Having given all we have got.
Tie a ribbon into a knot,
Anywhere to go from this corner.
And the window allowance on the bridges,
Makes the bravest the one to cross.
You may have gambled things a little
Just to meet me in the middle and lost.

And I wanna tell you, "Go for it any way."
And I wanna tell you, "Reach out your hand."
And I wanna tell you, "You can make it all the way over,"
But I know, I know you can't.
Oh, I know you can't.

Oh, and you're not sleeping in your bed tonite;
You're hoping now to catch what's keeping you awake.
...just your body's mistake--something to fix fast.
I took some pictures and I signed some autographs last year,
When the circus came to town.
As for me, I'm just remembering the sound of that.

And I wanna tell you, "Go for it any way."
And I wanna tell you, "Reach out your hand."
And I wanna tell you, "You can make it all the way over,"
But I know, I know you can't.
Oh, I know you can't.

We're straining our ears just to hear.
Is there a ticket to the road around the matter at hand?
Understand, it won't find you,
It's already behind you,
And through is the only way left.

And I wanna tell you, "Go for it any way."
And I wanna tell you, "Reach out your hand."
And I wanna tell you, "You can make it all the way over,"
But I know, I know you can't.
Oh, I know you can't.

(We're straining our ears.)
