Years went by this way
Night after night, this way
In endless rounds of contraindication
Years went by
Years went by

I am a bridge between earth and sky
Though years may go by
My heart a bridge between earth and sky
Oh the tolls collected until I felt its worth
Years went by
Years went by

Urgent glimpses persisted
Hopeful molecules, persisted
Insinuating themselves into the lungs
Demanding to pave
The rightful bridge

I am a bridge between earth and sky
Though years may go by
Though the pavement fall into disrepair
And no flow of the soul occur
I am a bridge
Years may go by

Time may wither, time may die
Yet the bridge stands ready
Years may go by
Years may go by
