1 Do you remember the bridge
That we crossed in the past
To cross the river
Very close to the house
The little wooden bridge
Which hardly held any longer
Only because of a great mystery
And two straight stakes
The little wooden bridge
Which hardly held any longer
That by a great mystery
And two straight stakes
2 If you come back that way
You will see the river
And I made it again in stone
The little wooden bridge
Then I covered it
With green logs
To give the river back
Its old look of yesteryear
Then I covered it
With logs of green wood
To give back to the river
Its old air of yesteryear
3 It has been following ever since
Its imaginary course
Because it hardly rains anymore
Only once or twice a year
But in this corner of the earth
A strange little bridge
Step over a water lily
In the middle of the ferns
But in this corner of the earth
A weird little bridge
Step over a water lily
In the middle of the ferns ¨res
To go nowhere
And yet I'm proud of it
