lyrics

Bridge To A New Life

It took a lot of effort to overcome
High above the water
At the entrance to the bay
Essential words I had to say

Shrouded in thick fog
Cable-suspension design
A lighting scheme with towers
And it kept on raining flowers

A bridge to a new life
at our place of longing
At the entrance to the bay
Essential words I had to say

About a mile into the north
with the roaring noise of cars
Almost a mile on foot
On a troubled way we are

A crossing over deep dark water
A crossing under golden light
A gate into high hopes
where the ocean opens wide
A crossing over ocean arms
A place so far from home
A gate into high hopes
where the ocean opens wide

Bridge to a new life
at our place of belonging
Strong wind blows us in the face
As we cry and hope for grace
under the steel struts
we cry and hope for grace
