Songs of Influence Blog:
This song is especially meaningful for me, for three reasons:
Firstly, the uplifting lyrics. They speak of true friendship and loyalty regardless of the circumstances.
Secondly, the hauntingly beautiful voice of Art Garfunkel that sends shivers down my spine.
Thirdly, this was my late mothers' favourite song. I remember that when it came on the radio, she would quickly turn it up and sing along at the top of her voice.
A special song, with special lyrics, evoking special memories. Enjoy!
Lyrics, courtesy lyricsfreak.com:
When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
