The Bridge

You jumped into the water under the bridge People watched you fall through the air I've been haunted by the image Because I was also there Holding on the the railing until my knuckles turned white Screaming your name into the night You jumped into the water under the bridge No one understood why I've been haunted by the image I've been haunted by you and I Wasn't what we had enough to make it through You had nothing to live for, while I was living for you You jumped into the water under the bridge The highest one in our town I've been haunted by the image Replaying over and over your body falling down I wish I could have grabbed your hand and held you back I lost you to the water, cold and black You jumped into the water under the bridge One decision can change a life I've been haunted by the image Your decision took you up into the skies I walked past that place today and wished you were here but you jumped into the water under the bridge and I watched you fall through the air
