Bridge Of Wood & Stone
(Listen) clip
With both hands in my pockets
I walked the mountain trail
A soft spring breeze scattered leaves
From tree tops down they sailed
There were no city sounds no people around
And I walked down to a stream
Built a little bridge and slipped into a dream
I thought of home
But all I've known
Chorus
Seems so far away
Taxi cabs and busses rushing in and out all day
Nights out on the town
Kicking cans along the ground
I built this bridge of wood and stone
Do we cross our lives alone?
Behind the tree topped mountains
There's a clear and cloudless sky
Circling so patiently a hawk swiftly glides
Everyone I know had asked me not to go
But I don't know what they mean
The answer is there isn't one what truth lies in between
I took a step across and suddenly felt lost
Chorus
Where is home?
I looked into the stream to see
And saw my reflection staring back at me
