Up on the bridge
I am thinking goodbye
As we walk in the haze
Caught in the skyline.
The wings either side
Soon will carry you high
Is this the last time I’ll see you?

Here in my town
I go walking alone
Let the time pass me by
Oh it’s a strange life.
‘Cause where are you now?
Are you doing OK?
Is the city your friend?
Friend of the lonely.

City of strangers
Breathing sky scrappers
She comes to claim us
To break and to heal us all.

All the times in the square
With the lights and the news.
Where the east river flows
Past the bridge that we knew.
City of strangers
Strangely contagious
Lost in the dangers
Our hearts full of craters.

City of strangers
Breathing sky scrappers
Strangely contagious
Lost in the dangers
She comes to claim us
To break and to heal us all.
