Look On Down From The Bridge

Look On Down From The Bridge is a song recorded by the band Mazzy Star for their album Among My Swan, released in 1996. It speaks to the reflections and emotions behind loss and change, and the disconnection from what was once considered home. The inspiration for the lyrics could very well be attributed to the loss of Keith Mitchell, the bands drummer, who passed away before the albums release.
