I hear your laughter
City lamps that light me up
Thinking back I wonder where
At what point, love fell corrupt
I remember crossing that bridge
Roaming walkways for the best view
Where bats departed into the night
I found my heart and eyes on you
I sometimes wish I could turn back time
Like so many lovers sing in songs
Life is so fleeting we live only once
How without you can I ever be strong
I wish, I say, and wish over and over
Under that bridge we could be lovers
