Some Bridges - Jackson Browne

Every day I walk out in this torn up world

And I fight to survive

I’m laughing when I make it to the Saturday

And I’m alive

Carrying your smile with me Carrying your smile with me Everywhere I look I see this world slippin' down

That low road, day by day

And I just go on working for the things I need

And making my own way

Carrying your smile with me, oh yea

Carrying your smile with me Take a walk on the troubled side of this old town

Take a walk on the broken streets and the buildings falling down

Look at all these kids with nothing but trouble in their eyes

Trouble in their future, trouble in their lives

Some bridges are falling down

Some bridges are still around

Take a walk on the shaded uptown avenue

Some people are doing well no matter how they do And I know there’s more to life than what you own

But I see so many good things, things I’ve never known

Some bridges are falling down

Some bridges are still around

Every night I listen to the sound of the street

Lying in my bed

I love to see the dreams that are dancing there

In the light above your head

And sometimes I get so weary

And when hope is caving in You fill me with your love and your laughter, baby

Until I get back up again

Carrying your smile with me

(Take a walk on the streets of this divided town)

Carrying your smile with me

(Take a walk on the smoking edge of the battleground)

Carrying your smile with me

(Take a look at the situation, the poverty and the desperation)

(Take the time for the realization)

Everyday I’m carrying your smile with me

(Take a walk in the daylight)

Carrying your smile with me

(Some bridges are falling down)

Carrying your smile with me

(Some bridges are still around)
