A Bridge That Carries Us Over Lyrics - Clannad

Time came around, and I was in need 

You came by my side, all my troubles to ease 

You collected my heart, healing the past 

You'll never lay down and i can count on you 

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over 

...over safe 

The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength 

...our greatest strength. 

When someone pretends, to circle your friends 

And finds he's betraying you 'fore it all ends 

A bittersweet chain, that'll always remain 

So don't let illusions get the better of you 

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over 

...over safe 

The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength 

...our greatest strength.Love is to share, where words can't compare 

Love is desire, so full of fire 

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over 

...over safe 

The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength 

...our greatest strength. 

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over 

...over safe 

The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength 

...our greatest strength.
