BRIDGES

 

Pushing and pulling 

Building these walls 

This isn’t working 

I can hear you calling 

 

Saying come to me, stay with me, pray with me 

All it takes is one more step 

 

I know it feels sometimes like you’re out of your depth 

But you can’t get across the words in your head 

You made it this far, still got your doubts 

But it’s all on the line, time is winding down 

Ooh – you can keep to yourself, that’s your decision 

Ooh – but I want to build, build some bridges 

 

Hope and connection 

Steel and design 

I’ve learned my lesson 

You can’t run and hide, no 

 

So come to me, stay with me, pray with me 

All it takes is one last step 

 

I know, I know it feels sometimes like you’re out of your depth 

And you can’t get across the words in your head 

You made it this far, but you still got your doubts 

And it’s all on the line, now time is winding down 

Ooh – oh you can keep to yourself, that’s your decision 

Ooh – but I want to build, build some bridges 

Build some bridges 

 

Can you see me 

Can you see hear me 

Ooh – well you can keep to yourself and that’s your decision 

Mm hmm, oh yeah – but I’m gonna build, build some bridges 

 

Coming home, I’m coming home, I want to know (build some bridges) 

Yes I’m coming home, well I’m coming home and I want to know (build some bridges) 

 

You know I want to know, I want to know ‘cause I’m coming home (build some bridges) 

Yeah yeah, yeah, I gotta know (build some bridges), build some… yeah 

‘Cause I’m coming home (build some bridges) 

Yeah I’m coming home
