The Bridge Lyrics

The bridge that spans the gap between our souls,
Continues through the night from pole to pole.
And hope is like a light that shines in endless flight,
Spilling over into darkness and making us wholly free
To span the oceans of our lives.
Feeling only love's emotion suspended through the skies.
And when we meet again remember me from when,
I was crawling in the darkness, you were holding on the sky.
((I want to get back to the city,))
((Where the neon lights shine pretty all day long.))
((I'm giving my heart to the rock and roll))
((Of the city gonna save my soul.))
You are the captain and master of my soul.

((Long ago the loneliness of time spinning onward into emptiness,))
((With no reason and no rhyme, said, "When two lovers meet,))
((The heart begins to beat just like the rhythm of the street.))
((Sad serenaders keep the time,
((Midnight party makers move in line.))
But when we meet again remember me from when,
I was falling into darkness and you owned the sky.
((I want to get back to the city,))
((Where the neon lights shine pretty all day long.))
((I'm giving my heart to the rock and roll,))
((Of the city gonna save my soul.))
You are the captain and master of my soul.

((I want to get back to the city,))
((Where the neon lights shine pretty all day long.))
((I'm giving my heart to the rock and roll,))
((Of the city gonna save my soul.))
You are, you are...
((I want to get back.))
((The neon lights shine pretty all day long.))
((I'm giving my heart to the rock and roll,))
(Rock and Roll.)
Fade.
((City gonna save my soul.))
Gonna save my soul.
You are the soul.
((I wanna get back to the city...))
