When tears are in your eyes  I will dry them all.  
 I'm on your side  Oh  when times get rough  
 And friends just can't be found.  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters  
 I will lay me down.  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters  
 I will lay me down.  
 When you're down and out  when you're on the street  
 When evening falls so hard  I will comfort you.  
 I'll take your part, Oh when darkness comes  
 And pain is all around  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters  
 I will lay me down.  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters  
 I will lay me down.  
 Sail on children, sail on by  
 Your time has come to shine, all their dreams are on their way  
 See how they shine, Oh when you need a friend  
 I'm sailing right behind  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters  
 I will ease your mind  
 Like a bridge over troubled waters,  
 I will ease your mind.  
 I'll ease your mind
