“Bridge Over Troubled Water” is a song from 1970 by Michael Jackson, taken from the album Third Album.
Ooh, when you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I'll dry them all, I'm on your side
Oh, 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
Oh, oh, I'll take your part
Oh, and darkness come
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
Ooh
I will lay me down
Sail on silver
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
Yeah, yeah
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Ooh, I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Oh, like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
I will ease your mind
