Browne Jackson Some Bridges Lyrics

Some Bridges Lyrics

Every day I walk out in this torn up world
And I fight to survive
I'm
laughing when I make it to the Saturday
And I'm alive
Carrying your smile
with me
Carrying your smile with me
Everywhere I look I see this world
slippin' down
That low road, day by day
And I just go on working for the
things I need
And making my own way
Carrying your smile with me, oh
yea
Carrying your smile with me
Take a walk on the troubled side of this
old town
Take a walk on the broken streets and the buildings falling
down
Look at all these kids with nothing but trouble in their
eyes
Trouble in their future, trouble in their lives
Some bridges are
falling down
Some bridges are still around
Take a walk on the shaded
uptown avenue
Some people are doing well no matter how they do
And I know
there's more to life than what you own
But I see so many good things, things
I've never known
Some bridges are falling down
Some bridges are still
around
Every night I listen to the sound of the street
Lying in my
bed
I love to see the dreams that are dancing there
In the light above
your head
And sometimes I get so weary
And when hope is caving in
You
fill me with your love and your laughter, baby
Until I get back up
again
Carrying your smile with me
(Take a walk on the streets of this
divided town)
Carrying your smile with me
(Take a walk on the smoking
edge of the battleground)
Carrying your smile with me
(Take a look at the
situation, the poverty and the desperation)
(Take the time for the
realization)
Everyday I'm carrying your smile with me
(Take a walk in the
daylight)
Carrying your smile with me
(Some bridges are falling
down)
Carrying your smile with me
(Some bridges are still around)
