A Bridge Too Far Lyrics

I walk this bridge over the Rijn

A road I've trekked a thousand times before

With you by my side, but you don't walk here, any more

And in the evening twilight phase, I gaze upon a star

Though it's far away, you feel so close to me

On a bridge too far

There is no wonder why it is

That I'm still in this place that gives me

Clear and present thought's of you, as your sweet face comes smiling through

You beam into my memories, to tell me where you are

Far away, no, right here with me

On a bridge too far

This bridge that spans the river Rijn, iconic place in space and time

The waters run beneath me now, as I try to hold on to you somehow

Though surely as the river flows, I know, I must let go of you

Leave the past behind, find some peace of mind

The year was nineteen ninety four

When I came here and opened up, a door

On pastures new and the life we knew before

Since you've gone I met someone but it's only friends we are

Though I know you'd say, you are free today

That love is not a bridge too far

I know you'd say, you are free today

Love is not a bridge too far, love is not a bridge too far
