Silver Bridge

[Verse 1] My heart is full today For the recently departed Of sorrow and of sympathy Into that land uncharted [Verse 2] The old man turned away from me The stairway he ascended I heard his struggle through the night With Saturn's hand extended [Chorus] All those nights when you can't sleep Your heart and mind is racing Are you standing on that bridge? Which way are you facing? [Verse 3] I stared upon his body as My soul was filled with wonder I stood there frozen in one place Could not be pulled asunder [Chorus] All those nights when you can't sleep Your heart and mind is racing Are you standing on that bridge? Which way are you facing? [Bridge] I'd sent him upstairs with a kiss He lay in light of silver It seemed to me I saw that bridge That he had taken over [Verse 4] Should I make the move to him? He wasn't mine for claiming I witnessed all there was to see Withdrew without the naming [Verse 5] When I knew that he had been So much more than sleeping I stayed with him the afternoon In a kind of vigil keeping [Chorus] All those nights when you can't sleep Your heart and mind is racing Are you standing on that bridge? Which way are you facing? [Verse 1] My heart is full today For the recently departed Of sorrow and of sympathy Into that land uncharted
