The Bridge Lyrics

Elton John

I've seen the bridge and the bridge is long And they built it high and they built it strong Strong enough to hold the weight of time Long enough to leave some of us behind
And every one of us has to face that day Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away? And every one of us that ever came to play Has to cross the bridge or fade away
Standing on the bridge, looking at the waves Seen so many jump, never seen one saved On a distant beach, your song can die On a bitter wind, on a cruel tide
And every one of us has to face that day Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away? And every one of us that ever came to play Has to cross the bridge or fade away
And the bridge, it shines Oh, cold, hard iron Saying, “Come and risk it all Or die trying”
And every one of us has to face that day Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away? And every one of us that ever came to play Has to cross the bridge or fade away Has to cross the bridge or fade away
