Lyrics
I have always found
A bridge, a way around to you
Rivers changing over time
This one never did go dry
Overflowed its banks and I know
Years of tears and the waters rise
As you fade away
I keep your mem'ry safe with me
Nothing needs to be repaired
I sit returning stories
That you gave me long before these thorny rides
In and out of here and there
And we two
We'd go to Holiday Lake
In the bitter cold
You'd lace up my skates
Hand in hand we'd move
Over ice so smooth
That's the way I'll remember you
Witness to present, past
In bodies never meant to last
In the slow, receding light
A stranger now, I look at you
The hands are of the man I knew
Back when your eyes were blue and bright
Never in the plan
For you to be a happy man
But the darkness stepped aside
In those moments we'd fly
Go gliding away
I have always found
A bridge, a way around to you
Rivers changing over time
This one never will go dry
A spirit shared is one alive
Years of tears and the waters will rise
