When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
Sis, I'll dry them all
'Cause I'm on your side, ooh, when times get rough
And friends just can't, they can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
I will lay me down (yes, I will)
I will lay me down (lay me down, girl)
I will lay me down (lay me down, girl)
I will lay me down (lay me down)
When you're down and out
And ooh, when you're on the street
Oh, when evening falls, falls so hard
I will comfort you
'Cause I'll take your part (you'll take my part)
When darkness comes (yeah)
And pain is all, when it's all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
See, I will lay me down
I will lay me down (I know you will)
I will lay me down
I will lay me down (yes, you are)
I will lay me down
Sail on, silver girl, sail on by
Your time has come, and you know you shined
And all your dreams are on their way
But see how they shine if you ever need a friend
Girl, look around, I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
I will lay me down (yes, I will, yes, I will)
I will lay me down (yes, I will, yes, I will)
I will lay me down (lay me down, for real)
I will lay me down (we don't have to worry)
I will lay me down (gotta pray to Jesus)
I will lay me down
I will lay me down (yes He is, Yes He is)
I will lay me down (yes He is, Yes He is)
I will lay me down (yes He is, Yes He is)
I will lay me down (I know He is)
I will lay me down (I know He is)
Go 'head and lay me down
