Standin' on a bridge
Watch the water passin' under me
It must have been much harder
When there was no bridge just water
Now the world is small
Remember how it used to be
With mountains, and oceans, and winters, and rivers and stars
Fill: Am G G F x2

So close but every time

He never catch her
F
But he can't stop trying
