face on the bridge

it was a day

just like any other day

i walked alone

through the old town

but what happened then

would have happened anyway

the water stopped turning

and time stood still

what could it be

that set you apart from the people i meet

thousands of faces

there's only one i can see

a face in the crowd

that's calling so loud that it hurts me

here in this place

you are the face on the bridge

unlock my head

to the king of bohemia

i give my thanks

for she set me free

without this girl

i would simply not be here

her face on the bridge

made a man of me

what could it be

that set you apart from the people i meet

thousands of faces

there's only one i can see

a face in the crowd

that's calling so loud that it hurts me

here in this place you are the face on the bridge

you offered your hand

you brought me back from the edge

here in this place

you are the face on the bridge

what could it be

that set you apart from the people i meet

thousands of faces

there's only one i can see

a face in the crowd

that's calling so loud that it hurts me

here in this place

you are the face on the bridge

you offered your hand

you brought me back from the edge

here in this place

you are the face on the bridge

you are the face on the bridge

you are the face on the bridge

you are the face on the bridge
