Bridge of Sighs

Lyrics:

© bradders
I was grateful for everything I had with you
But then the winter came and their paucity of truth
Too many questions, so many trials they put me through
And all the forces that would hold me back,
I pray we can still pull through

I put our futures in my pocket,
there's nothing else that I could do

In days of clover, I thought you would show me how to compromise
Think it over, then we'll get out under the bridge of sighs
Give me a moment I can explain to you the hows and whys
Then under cover, our life anew, we can but fantasize

There was a journey
The price was paid (You couldn't see through your fears)
A boat will take us. (Beyond your tears)
It's time for you to be brave

I gave them everything
but they wanted more for passage on that wave
Someone to save us. There is no wreck.
We escape the salty grave

I took our futures from my pocket,
really nothing else that I could do

In days of clover, I thought you would show me how to compromise
Just think it over, then we'll get out under the bridge of sighs
If you give me a moment I can explain to you the hows and whys
Then under cover, our life anew, we can but fantasize

I put our futures in my pocket...
