The Bridge - Kalai

This is the word about a lovers plan

to build a promise with his bare hands

He left the beauty of his woman,

to tell the story of a man

But now she’s in the valley of another’s charm

Jumped from cloud 9 into another’s arms

I heard him asking what can a young boy do,

So to a man I told the truth

I said young man…

I would go and build a bridge

under her but over him

Then when the valley gets cold again

She can always cross your bridge

If and when she comes to it

Confusion kicked him like a gun,

fired from her tongue

The hammer swung a bullet through his back

but it hurt more in the front

Now baby’s puppy love is dog gone

On his way home his lady moved on

Then, to a friend, he asked what to do

Then, to a man, I told the truth

I said over the valley…

Don’t go and cry yourself a river

Your heavy heart will sink you down

And if you think you just can’t forgive her

Than, to a man, I’ll show you how…
