Aretha Franklin Lyrics

"Bridge Over Troubled Water" lyrics



(Donґt trouble the water)
I wonґt (give it up)
(Why donґt you, why donґt you, let it be?)
Um hum hum
(Still water run deep... yes it do)
I know that
(Whoa-o-o-yeah)
Yeah if you only believe

Instrumental

(Donґt trouble the water)
Said I wouldnґt (give it up)
(Why donґt you, why donґt you, let it be?)
Umm (still water run deep)
Yes it do
(Yes it do whoa-oh-ho yeah, and if youґre only in need)

When youґre down now
When you on the street
When evenin?falls
Somehow I will comfort you

Iґll take the bow
Whoa when darkness comes
And thereґs no one you love around

Just like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
(Like a bridge)
Just like a bridge
(Over troubled) over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on silver moon
Sail on by
Your time has come
To shine all of your dreams
Are on their way
(See how they shine?)

Ooooh if you ever need a friend
(Need a friend)
Look around and sailing by
Just like a bridge
(Bridge (over) over (troubled) water
Iґll be there to lay me down
(Like a bridge)
Like a bridge over (troubled water) troubled water
I will lay me down
Ooooh Iґll be your bridge
Yes I will

(Donґt trouble the water)
Said I wouldnґt
(Give it up)
Well (why donґt you, why donґt you, let it be?)
Uh-huh (still water run deep)
I know that
(Yes it do) yeah (oh-oh-oh yeah)
Still the water (donґt trouble the water)
Yeah

(Give it up, why donґt you, why donґt you, let it be)
Talkin?bout still water
(Still water run deep)
You know they run deep
(Yes it do) uh-huh (oh-ho-ho-yeah)

Well Iґm gonna be your bridge yeah!
(Donґt trouble the water)
The troubled water (give it up)
Oh!

Fade:
(Why donґt you, why donґt you, let it be?)
Come on come on
Walk out on me
(Still water run deep)
Oh
(Yes it do)..
