| I built a bridge, out of my hidden hope,
|
| From midnight dreams, where you dreamed of me tirelessly.
|
| I built a bridge to pass over the bottomless fate
|
| To your possessions in a grateful, holy side.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Bridge of love, bridge of love, lonely between two banks, like salvation from tears,
|
| from unexpected misfortune.
|
| But why this bridge, if there have been so many days in the deep, deep river
|
| water, no water.
|
| I built a bridge and ran to you along it,
|
| Holding on to the railing, I called you from afar.
|
| I called, but in response I only heard my own echo
|
| And on the far edge I didn’t even find your shadow.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Bridge of love, bridge of love, lonely between two banks, like salvation from tears,
|
| from unexpected misfortune.
|
| But why this bridge, if there have been so many days in the deep, deep river
|
| water, no water.
|
| I built a bridge and lived with one beautiful thought,
|
| That I will come to you through the rains and despairing blizzards.
|
| I built a bridge, yes I built it, apparently in vain
|
| So forgive and farewell my distant only friend.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Bridge of love, bridge of love, lonely between two banks, like salvation from tears,
|
| from unexpected misfortune.
|
| But why this bridge, if there have been so many days in the deep, deep river
|
| water, no water.
|
| For so many days there is no water, no water, no water. |
