The Bridge

From the Album: All the Things I Meant to Be (1992)
THE BRIDGE
Hey Boys, hey boys
Hey boys, hey boys
Meet me at the bridge tonight we'll set these city lights on fire
You've never seen a young boy's dream you've never seen three hearts conspire
We'll climb these hills till a fight sends us falling
We'll run this stream till the creek bed runs dry
We'll hide in this hedge this someone begins calling, goodbye, goodbye
Hey Boys, hey boys
Hey boys, hey boys
Meet me at the bridge tonight see what the summer air inspires
We'll take the town by storm again, our only rule is our desire
We'll run these fields as if we'll never tire
Our bond is blind as the sun in our eyes
A promise of strength which mere lover's aspire to
Now, can't die
Strange when the day's gone, no fife and no field drum
No way to keep the years at bay
We'll climb these hills till a fight sends us falling
We'll run this stream till the creek bed runs dry
We'll hit the years like a ball out of powder
We'll try, we'll try
