I’m on your side,
When times get rough,
And friends just can’t be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down,
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down…
– Written and composed by Simon and Garfunkel
Linking up with Trish at My Little Drummer BoysΒ for Wordless Wednesday…

I love the way you’ve matched your beautiful images with the words to such a classic song – the effect is very powerful.

Mum of Adult Kids says
I’m scared of heights so I’d rather look at bridges than be on them! Great shots, the last one particularly.

Thanks, Nat! I was thinking of this song throughout the whole morning while we were there at the bridge. Seemed like a perfect fit to include some of the lyrics for WW π

Nice. Such a lovely looking bridge. Thanks for the little musical interlude too. Love a bit of S&G.

S&G are all sorts of awesome, aren’t they ?
It’s our favourite little hangout that bridge. Will be a fundamental part of the boys’ childhood, I think.
Bridget says
Oh Grace. My mom used to sing me this song when I was a kid. We learned of another casualty today. As I read this, it feels like you – my friend on the other side of the world- it feels like you’re sending me a hug. I needed it. Thanks.

Denyse Whelan.Education Specialist says
Promise you’ll still be my friend….am a fan of the photos but never been a fan of S&G’s Bridge over Troubled water. 1970. Am lonely. Song being played. Made me feel lonelier. So, that’s my memory.
Then about 4 months later met B & you know the rest..B is a S&G fan too but me still no like!!

Oh, I totally understand, D! I have plenty of songs like that – too painful for me to listen to.
But at least you got a beautiful ending to this song. I definitely need to get that jam session happening with B π x
