[Verse 1]
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends, they just can't be found

[Hook]
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

[Verse 2]
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
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

[Hook]
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
[Verse 3]
Sail on, silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

[Hook]
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease, yeah, I will ease your mind

If you need a friend, oh
If you need a friend, oh
If you need a friend, oh
If you need a friend, oh

Sweet, sweet, sweet silver girl
Sweet silver girl
And I'll ease your mind
Yeah
I will ease your mind
