I know the times, the times are hard to bear It's hard to find someone to really care But before I went down and out Here's what I used to think about Think about Long the bridge was always falling down The bridge that stood within the heart of town Reminding everyone of life behind that point to come The changes taking place are everywhere The centuries past have nothing to compare With a stand, with a trip and fall Watch the writing on the wall On the wall Long the bridge is falling down at last The soul of all that member of the past Has felt beneath the blade and soon the death may be replaced I know things just can't live on through all eternity Crops and leaves will never die now so you can see Long the bridge has finally fallen down They packed it up and shipped it out of town But though the heart is gone, the memory will linger on Long the bridge has finally fallen down They packed it up and shipped it out of town But though the heart is gone, the memory will linger on Long the bridge has finally fallen down They packed it up and shipped it out of town But though the heart is gone, the memory will linger on Long the bridge has finally fallen down They packed it up and shipped it out of town
