The Bridge by The Magic Lantern Lyrics
The bridge that we built
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
This bridge was built naively
Without so much as a plan
But believe me when I say
The work was done with honest hands
Oh she’s gone
Oh she’s gone
The bridge that we built
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
With time the bridge it strengthened more
To carry heavy loads
Which in convey we passed over it
Upon newly beaten roads
Oh she’s gone
Oh she’s gone
The bridge that we built
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
This bridge was built naively
Without so much as a plan
But believe me when I say
The work was done with honest hands
Oh she’s gone
Oh she’s gone
The bridge that we built
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
With time the bridge it strengthened more
To carry heavy loads
Which in convey we passed over it
Upon newly beaten roads
Oh she’s gone
Oh she’s gone
The bridge that we built
Is falling down
Less of a bang, more of a whimper
What’s left on either bank
Is a slowly crumbling start
Distance is the river that
Broke this bridges heart
