Take me down to the bridge by the river,
Tell no-body,
Drop me into the icy waters,
Mourn me.
Take me back to the bridge by the river,
Where I first met mine sweetheart
Under the apple tree
Under the apple tree
We kissed..
And we'd run through the autumnal forest
We'd play in the pure spring
We'd hike over the ragged mountains
And collapse in obsessions
Take me back to the bridge by the river,
Where I crafted a home
Out of driftwood
Held together with mud
For my darling unborn child
I'd gather the firewood,
She'd stew what she found in the garden,
Muffled screams got louder all the while.
Take me back to the bridge by the river
Where nothing happened but it didn't matter
Little screams
Little screams
The biggest joy in our lives
Take me back to the bridge by the river
Take me back to happiness
