"I'm never so stupid as when I'm being smart." - Calvin and Hobbes


I’m stranded on this island with no way out
I don’t know how I got here and I don’t know what to do about it
One things for certain

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to carry me through the storm
I need you to lift me up
And keep me safe from harm
I need you to be my bridge

The waves crash around me the ground is booby-trapped
Every step I take could be my last
I’m scared and I’m frightened
I don’t know what to do
I barely have the strength to reach out for you

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to keep me from falling
I need you to guide me along
This darkened highway

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to carry me through the storm
I need you to lift me up
And keep me safe from harm
I need you to be my bridge

I want you to break down the glass
That separates the present from the past
I need you to tell me that I’ll be OK
I need you to stay

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be steady and strong
I need you to walk me through the minefield
I need you to bring me home

Give me the strength to regain my faith
I need you to test each step before I take it
Every choice before I make it
I need you to lead me back to myself
I need your help

Cause I, I, I…

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to carry me through the storm
I need you to lift me up
And keep me safe from harm
I need you to be my bridge

I need you to keep me from falling
I need you to guide me along
This darkened highway

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be steady and strong
I need you to walk me through the minefield
I need you to bring me home

I need you to be my bridge
I need you to carry me through the storm
I need you to lift me up
And keep me safe from harm
I need you to be my bridge

I need you to carry me through the storm
I need you to lift me up
And keep me safe from harm
I need you to be my bridge


I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be my bridge
I need you to be my bridge

I’m stranded on this island with no way out
I don’t know how I got here and I don’t know what to do about it

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not pray for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it.
