[Intro]
(Don't trouble the water)
Said I won't (Leave it alone)
(Why don't you, why don't you let it be?) Mm-mm-mm
(Still water run deep) Yes, it do (Yes, it do)
(Oh yeah) If you only believe

[Verse 1]
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
Oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all, is all around

[Chorus]
Just like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
(Like a bridge) Just like a bridge
(Over troubled) Over troubled water
I will lay me down

[Verse 2]
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All of your dreams are on their way
(See how they shine?) See how they shine?
Oh, and if you ever need a friend (Need a friend)
Look around, I'm sailing right behind (Ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
Just like a bridge over troubled water (Like a bridge over troubled water)
I'll be there to lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water (Like a bridge over troubled water)
I will lay me down
(Oh, I'll be your bridge, yes, I will)

[Bridge]
(Don't trouble the water)
Said I wouldn't (Leave it alone)
Well (Why don't you, why don't you, let it be?)
Uh-huh (Still water run deep)
I know that (Yes, it do), yeah (Oh yeah)
