Lyrics

Hide in the shadows, german shepherds are near
Heart double beating in a bright cage of fear
Something he wanted, but the price was too dear
His spirit's starting to float
The bridge of god is his hope

Choir voices calling as the priest reads the news
Congregations falling, but incredible views
Long ago a mason earned a new pair of shoes
Building a bridge to the sky
Teaching the granite to fly

Cross the bridge of god, cross the bridge

With chisels of steel
He carved out the wheel
To carry you high
With nail through bone
He laid the first stone
That crosses the sky

Stooped to the soil, bitter harvest passed by
Dining on hunger, as his crops slowly die
A distant church spire, points the way to the sky
His pain is starting to melt
Beneath the bridges he knelt

Cross the bridge of god, cross the bridge

Old man is waiting for the end to arrive
Grey monday morning with the washing line skies
Then without warning he just closes his eyes
He knows he hasn't a care, he knows the brides are there

Cross the bridge of god, cross the bridge

All his memories sold
He's releasing his hold
To be carried on high
With the juice of the past
Turned to dust in the hearth
It's an easy goodbye

Cross the bridge of god, cross the bridge
