I remember wanting to listen to this song and buying the LP record on impulse! There are many great S&G songs, but this is one of my favorites! I'm not very good at singing it, but I tried! 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 I'll 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 I'll be your support When darkness comes and pain surrounds I'll offer myself to you Like a bridge over troubles I'll offer myself to you Like a bridge over troubles 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 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
