38 - The Little Wooden Bridge

1. Do you remember the bridge
That we used to cross
To cross the river
Close to the house
The little wooden bridge
That barely held together
Only by a great mystery
And two straight stakes
The little wooden bridge
That barely held together
Only by a great mystery
And two straight stakes

2. If you come back there
You will see the river
And I have rebuilt in stone
The little wooden bridge
Then I covered it
With green wooden logs
To give back to the river
Its old-fashioned look
Then I covered it
With green wooden logs
To give back to the river
Its old-fashioned look

3. Since then, it follows
Its imaginary course
Because it hardly rains
But once or twice a year
But in this corner of the earth
A strange little bridge
Straddles a water lily
In the middle of the ferns
But in this corner of the earth
A strange little bridge
Straddles a water lily
In the middle of the ferns

To go nowhere
And yet I am proud of it
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la.
