Bridge Over Troubled Water
(paul simon)
Producer for bonnie: david foster
When youre weary, feelin small
When tears are in your eyes, Ill dry them all
Im on your side. oh, when times get rough
And friends just cant be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When youre down and out, when youre on the street
When evening falls so hard I will comfort you
Ill take your part. oh, 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. oh, if you need a friend
Im 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

The troubled water
The bridge built between two islands.
Could not calm the troubled water.
The smile put across my face.
Could not calm the troubled spirit.

What Child Is This? (feat. The London Symphony Orchestra)
Yesterday the rains came down, there was darkness all around
They told me you had gone to find a new life
But you left no word of where you\\\'d gone, I fell right to the ground
And I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
I watched the ever-flowing stream as it washed away my dream
I felt like diving in and taking a ride
But the stranger took me by the hand and held me by his side
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
When I remember how I cried and how I nearly died
All for a man who had gone to find a new life
Now I can laugh, my friend\\\'s so fine he never seemed to mind
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, I\\\'m amazed at the change in me
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly
I\\\'m growing up, getting stronger constantly, yeah

Water Under The Bridge

Yesterday the rains came down, there was darkness all around
They told me you had gone to find a new life
But you left no word of where youd gone, I fell right to the ground
And I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, Im amazed at the change in me

I watched the ever-flowing stream as it washed away my dream
I felt like diving in and taking a ride
But the stranger took me by the hand and held me by his side
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again
Water under the bridge carried my pain away from me
He was there trying to love and comfort me
Water under the bridge, Im amazed at the change in me

All for a man who had gone to find a new life
Now I can laugh, my friends so fine he never seemed to mind
When I needed all the help I could get to set me on my feet again

To Calm The Water
Compromise is like a bridge
That will connect two islands,
With the troubled water untouched.
Concerns only calm the water.

I think Bridge Over Troubled Water was a very good song. Artie sang it beautifully. The Boxer was a really nice record. But I don't think I've written any great songs.

Troubled Heart & A Troubled Mind
(chorus)
A troubled heart and a troubled mind
Is all Im gonna leave behind
Im movin on down the line
Dont shout me down Im doin fine
Youve been hard and heavy on my soul
Gotta lighten the load and let you go
Lifes too short, aint got the time
For a troubled heart and a troubled mind
Got a v-8 ford slung low to the ground
Got a highway leading me outta town
A road map open to the promised land
Ive taken just about as much as I can stand
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
Windshield wiper slappin off the rain
Bright lights shinin on the passin lane
One more mile, one less tear
So long daddy Im outta here
(repeat chorus)

A Friend
A friend is someone whose arms reach out
far beyond their reach,
to comfort a troubled soul,
and help them through their troubled times.
A friend is someone who always freely gives,
expecting nothing in return,
and is always there
whenever the need may arise.
A friend is someone who cares from the heart.
Who will stand by your side
whenever the troubles start.
A friend is someone whose face may never be seen,
but whose touch is always felt
and their words always
comfort your ailing soul.
A friend is someone who will never criticize,
but will listen to a troubled mind
without complaining.
A friend is someone who is all these,
and so much more.
Someone who will never ignore you,
but will always have the time.

Oil on troubled water
Grease on squeaky wheel
Quiet as a mouse am I
Not saying what I feel
To sit not…
Across a table
To tell you not…
What I’m able
Best to keep
It to myself
Store truth away
Upon the shelf
Oil on troubled water
Quiet as a mouse am I
Keepin’ me thoughts to meself
With a knowin’ wink o’ me eye

Temptation
did it ever feel just right for you,
have you ever wonder who we are,
pleasures in our life are fair and few,
have you ever looked for something more
this life, aint big enough, aint fair enough, some times we dont get to shine,
I remember feeling owned by you, that I would never get make you mine
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
its turning
body get my conciseness and please
leave me no room to breathe
the strength cant find the heart that feels
and you dont feel the same for me
like a big professional, cool to the bone,
is my pain what gets you off
I really need to suffer underneath your hands as long as you dont stop
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
not like Iknow what I took for granted it strapped me in the face
falling from your favoritebitter flavor of disgrace
distracted staring at me, my life it looks so real
and you know where it sides inside when your suffering
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,
its turning
Dont tempt me, now Im falling,
to much water under that bridge,
the bullet aint the same with out you now,

Troubled Times
Troubled times again are here.
It seems they leave, then reappear.
But that's an illusion that's not real.
For some it's always what they feel.
The ones who have no say at all,
hungry, thirsty since they were small.
Their troubled times are nothing new,
not like the ones that we're used to.
We equate these times with the price of gas
and think to ourselves 'this too shall pass.'
We equate these times to climate change
and think to ourselves it's all so strange.
What's strange my friends is how we perceive
that troubled times are just what we receive.
Troubled times are never really gone.
They come to some on each new dawn.

Unpleasant Days (after-effects of my fathers death)
Im a troubled child in the face of the moon,
Raised without a father,
Bred without a silver spoon.
Im a troubled child who seeks nothing but perfection,
Annointed to blossom in the pastures of my misconceptions.
Im a troubled child violated of my peace,
Battling burdens with no ease
When will these dark days come to cease.
Im a troubled child with great charisma & no fear,
Catastrophies Im faced with
My life seems so unfair.

Trust, Is A Bridge...
Trust, Was A Bridge, Between Us
Now, Blown To Bits and Dust!
Scattered Upon Waters of Fear
Too Far Down, To Bring Near
Trust, Was The Bridge, Between Us
Tottering and Unsafe, Due To Rust
Its Base, Was Sinking and Cracked
Cables Snapped, No Getting Back!
Trust, Was A Bridge, Between Us
Used To Stand-Up To Raging Gusts!
We Could Cross Over To Either Side
Hold Onto The Girders … And Stride
Trust, Was The Bridge, Between Us
Repairing It Now … Is A Bust!
So, Can This RelationShip, Sail To Both Shoals
Build A New Bridge, With A Higher Toll?
… Trust … Is A Bridge, Between Us
Guard It Well … This Time, Is A Must …

The Bridge Who Dreams Of Being A River
the bridge finally
confesses to the river
that in every surge of
the water below it
it experiences what human
males call an erection
it strengthens every
cable that runs inside it
the heavy clouds rain on it
and the sun scorches it with heat
every bridge confesses innocence
to this nonsense
the bridge after all is not what
it is, ...it is still going to be
not just a bridge but soon
when it collapses...a river too.
