The Bridge - Dolly Parton

The bridge, so high

The bridge, so tall

Here is where it started

On the bridge

The moon is big and yellow

And the stars are all a' glow

From the bridge, I see reflections

In the waters far below

You kissed me for the first time here

An' held me awfully tight

And the bridge became our favorite place

We came here often in the night

And one night while standing on the bridge

Desire swept through us both

Passion took us by the hand

And showed us where to go

From the bridge we saw a meadow

So we ran together there

Where we found love together

Our emotions filled the air

The bridge, so wide

The bridge, so long

Where once we stood together

Tonight I stand alone

Tonight, while standing on the bridge

My heart is beating wild

To think that you could leave me here

With our unborn child

My feet are moving slowly

Closer to the edge

Here is where it started

And here is where I’ll end it
