[00:00.78]Silver Bridge - Suzanne Vega
[00:15.64]My heart is full today
[00:18.58]For the recently departed
[00:22.30]Of sorrow and of sympathy
[00:26.10]Into that land uncharted
[00:29.71]The old man turned away from me
[00:33.25]The stairway he ascended
[00:37.22]I heard his struggle through the night
[00:40.62]With Saturn’s hand extended
[00:44.52]All those nights when you can’t sleep
[00:47.88]Your heart and mind is racing
[00:51.98]Are you standing on that bridge
[00:55.68]Which way are you facing
[01:14.58]I stared upon his body as
[01:17.74]My soul was filled with wonder
[01:21.38]I stayed there frozen in one place
[01:24.63]I could not be pulled asunder
[01:29.12]All those nights when you can’t sleep
[01:32.44]Your heart and mind is racing
[01:36.19]Are you standing on that bridge
[01:40.01]Which way are you facing
[01:52.12]I’d sent him upstairs with a kiss
[01:54.90]Now he lay in light of silver
[01:58.41]It seemed to me I saw that bridge
[02:02.36]That he had taken over
[02:21.15]Should I make the move to him
[02:24.36]He wasn’t mine for claiming
[02:27.72]I witnessed all there was to see
[02:31.37]And withdrew without the naming
[02:35.98]When I knew that he had been
[02:38.99]So much more than sleeping
[02:42.57]I stayed with him the afternoon
[02:46.03]In a kind of vigil keeping
[02:50.21]All those nights when you can’t sleep
[02:53.65]Your heart and mind is racing
[02:57.30]Are you standing on that bridge
[03:01.06]Which way are you facing
[03:20.25]My heart is full today
[03:23.44]For the recently departed
[03:26.87]Of sorrow and of sympathy
[03:30.73]Into that land uncharted
