Sting
The Bridge
[Verse 1]
They say there's a bridge up there
Up there in the mist
Some will deny it's there
Others will tell you it don't even exist

[Verse 2]
It's not made of iron or steel nor stone
Yet it spans the rising waters
We are but bags of blood and bone
If we carry the weight of our sons and our daughters

[Chorus]
And now that feels are rather drowned
And we climb up to the ridge
Some will seek the higher ground
Some of us the bridge

[Verse 3]
If all is bеhind us
Beneath us swollen rivеr
The bridge we will find somehow
Only then we would be delivered

[Verse 4]
Though some will claim to be inclined
It's a figment or a ghost
But the bridge is deep inside the mind
Invisible to most
[Chorus]
And now the city's all but drowned
And here upon the ridge
Some will seek the higher ground
Some of us the bridge

[Outro]
We'll open the gates that we may follow
Open the bridge to all of us
Open the floodgate to the river
Open the bridge that we may cross
