Bridge across the river

Chris Thompson


Turning back the pages 
I look for meaning in every line 
I´ve seen a lot of changes 
And changed a lot of times 

The road just keeps on going 
But every road leads you home 
And though you won´t be with me 
I´ll make it on my own 

To build a bridge across the river 
Where tears of sadness turn to joy 
To learn the love goes on forever 
And now the fire in me 
Is never going out 

Turning back the pages 
On childish dreams that couldn´t last 
A lesson for the future 
A picture frozen in the past 

So the mirror my be broken 
But I see your face, wherever I go 
And though you won´t be with me 
I´m gonna make it on my own 

To build a bridge across the river 
Where tears of sadness turn to joy 
To learn the love goes on forever 
And now the fire in me 
Is never going out
