Lyrics of
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.

Look on down from the bridge
There's still fountains down there
Look on down from the bridge
It's still raining up here
Everybody seems so far away from me
Everybody just want to be free

Look away from the sky
It's no different when you're leaving home
I can't be the same thing to you now
I'm just gone, just gone
How could I say goodbye?
How could I say goodbye? Goodbye

Maybe I'll just place my hands over you
And close my eyes real tight
There's a light in your eyes
And you know, yeah you know
Look on down from the bridge
I'm still waiting for you
