Aiken, Clay - Bridge Over Troubled Water Lyrics






When You're Weary Feeling Small
When Tears Are In Your Eyes I Will Dry Them All
I'm On Your Side Oh When Times Get Rough
And Friends Just Can't Be Found

Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water
I Will Lay Me Down

When You're Down And Out When You're On The Street
When Evening Falls So Hard I Will Comfort You
I'll Take Your Part Oh When Darkness Comes
And Pain Is All Around

Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water
I Will Lay Me Down
Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water
I Will Lay Me Down

Sail On Silver Girl Sail On By
Your Time Has Come To Shine All Your Dreams Are On Their Way
See How They Shine Oh When You Need A Friend
Well Look Around I'm Sailing Right Behind

Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water
I Will Ease Your Mind
Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water
I Will Ease Your Mind
Your Mind, Ease Your Mind

    Joshua ledet jar of hearts

  14. L.... M....

    I remember this performance to this day..yes definitely one of the best

    Not necessarily the best, but one of the best.

    I was devastated when he didn't win

  19. H.... L....

    The best version ever!!!!!

  20. G.... W....

    GURL! Your head pops are ON POINT! So are your eye brows!

  21. C.... B....

    I revisit this often to show people how a real singing competition contestant does it, and we compare who they believe is best.... they always change their mind after seeing this

  22. L.... E....

    Every time I here this I am more amazed! You will always be a fantastic singer! Love you Clay from Louisiana!

  23. J.... ....

    Absolutely the best performance ever, proving why this show was fake, as he didn't win

  24. C.... M....

    one of the best voices out there today as well :)

  25. R.... R....

    Still a very moving performance and amazing singer..

  26. E.... Z....

    2020 anyone?

  27. G.... O....

    I saw Clay and clicked so fast hahaha I love this song, I love clay he was amazing. How did he just vanish???

  28. E.... J....

    I actually hate this. this is not the kind of song that simon and garfunkel we’re going for. this is a mockery of the artistry of paul simon and art garfunkel

  29. A.... ....

    Away before Adam Lambert there was Clay Aiken

  30. S.... G....

    It was rigged!!! I never watched it again!! Simon Cowell was an ass!!!!!!!! I think this was the only time he was nice to Clay

  31. r.... ....

    The reason Rueben won was because the producers thought he was more marketable than Clay. And no they didn't rig the votes...read the fine print in the end credits... the producers can do whatever they want...screw the votes. I'm serious, check it out.

  32. T.... M....

    Best performance my ass! Gayest? Yes. Most feminine? Yes. Most egotistical? Definitely. Best? Not even close.

    I remember seeing him introduce Reuben, who beat him in American Idol. It went something along the lines of here’s the man who took took from the one thing I ever really wanted. What kind of introduction is that? Wholly inappropriate, jealousy-laden, mean-spirited, sour grapes ridden crap of all time!

  33. R.... S....

    When you sing a song Elvis sang an of course Simon an Garfunkel sang an wrote .He should have won .now you dont hear about any of them .

  34. G.... W....

    GURL! Your HEAD SNAPPING was on POINT

  35. n.... ....

    Still incredible.....

  36. M.... ....

    When I saw this one I thought "This guy nailed it down for sure." Then he lost to Ruben Studdard. I haven't watched it since.

  37. R.... W....

    Beat that no you dont!

  38. B.... ....

    Looks gay

  39. G.... C....

    Too bad he's a leftist douchebag now.

  40. I.... R....

    Bonita Música .

  41. r.... k....

    [email protected]
    Just got blown away. Gone with the wind😁🕊️

  42. K.... G....

    He should have won

  43. R.... A....

    There is a true American idol. No one deserved being a more true American idol ever. Most definitely should have won.

  44. P.... S....

    This actually sucks balls!

  45. D.... S....

    Most beautiful voice! Range tone. Can't be beat!

  46. M.... U....

    I love him but this is such a terrible version.. he sings it way too fast.

  47. C.... ....

    Gosh hindsight is a mother..... Its so easy to see Clay is AI GOAT but at the time Ruben was so popular also. Wrong man won though. Clay is the greatest ever on Idol.

  48. A.... K....

    SUCKS,never HEAR him on radio or tv
    He is ocupide with his ass 💩💩💩💩💩

  49. Z.... R....

    Clay has a great voice, and he is very cute (& hot)...
    but he should have at least combed his hair before he went on National television to perform before millions of people!

  50. S.... W....

    11 years later. I still remember this vividly. So good. Love the arrangement. Love the accompanying choir. Love his performance. And that ending and last note. Goosebumps!!!

  51. J.... D....

    Sad he didn't win and sad adam Lambert didn't win. But I think it worked out better for them. Like jennifer h, Kelly p. Etc...

  52. E.... M....

    I heard a lot of people sing this song even the king Elvis. But Clay put it dowm

  53. S.... ....

    Rubben was just another overrated big fat BLACK PIECE OF SHIT that has no right to live what so ever!!!

    S.... ....

    You need Christ.

    S.... ....

    You sir are an idiot

  54. D.... L....

    unbelievable that That Stoddard guy won .. never shoulda happened., He was Never heard from again ..

  55. J.... M....

    Greatest Idol performance ever!!!

  71. J.... C....

    They say the best singers sing without showing too much effort, he definitely gets an A+.

  72. Z.... ....

    Best American idol performance EVER! Back when American idol was worth watching.

  73. t.... ....

  77. C.... H....

    Thank you for using your gift. I listen to you when the pain is bad and it helps. Your awesome. Again, thank you. Keep singing

  78. T.... M....

    Just checking random AI videos, i think this guy has the best performance and voice among all of them. And he is quite handsome too 🤣

  79. A.... L....

    ...damn.. I keep coming back watching this epic performance...

  80. y.... ....

    Randy setting black people back 100 years every time he spoke.

  81. g.... ....

    My mother and sister loved this guy (I never watched American Idol)...., RIP to them both. Hope to see you guys....miss you, and love you.

  82. S.... ....

    This is the season when American Idol really got it wrong. He was robbed from winning but like Jennifer Hudson he is still thought to be the best singer of that season. Not always the winner is the one who wins the prize. To all of us who listened to you sing that season we knew that you were and are the winner Clay Aiken!

  83. p.... ....

    YEAH, THIS WAS PROBABLY GOOD back in the day...I mean, 2008? PPfffftttt... Check out the new kid in town, Kodi Lee. No, he doesn't have a band and choir backing him. Just solo, his voice and a piano. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIXgLR4wFuU

  84. L.... A....

    HE SHOULD HAVE WON Love him

  85. b.... ....

    Simon's always fucking spouting BULLSHIT.

    Man, FUCK THIS GUY.

  86. d.... e....

    One of the best voices the world has ever known. Complete travesty that he wasn't the winner. He definitely was the winner as far as all who know better would say.

  87. K.... I....

    Baby Clay Aiken sung the shit out this song! I like Ruben Studdard but Clay should've won this whole thing. His voice was incredible.

  88. 7.... N....

    https://youtu.be/GWb_-rjK_Ug. Who would've thought!!!!

  89. C.... G....

    im obsessed

  90. E.... E....

    Clay was likeable he had charisma and charm and personality and a not so bad voice. He had everything. He should have won but nevermind still Gold in our eyes

  91. J.... T....

    Clay looks like Oliver Hardey in March of the Wooden Soldiers.

  92. S.... H....

    Those choir singers did not help, he still sounded awful.

  93. J.... C....

    He should of won!

  94. S.... ....

    Best AI performance ever!

  95. J.... T....

    I still remember this moment. Still the best. Beat Reuben by a ton.

  96. a.... o....

    wow wow wow

  97. C.... B....

    Its funny how he doesn't make gurgling sounds when he sings on account of all the sperm in his throat. Ha ha!!!

  98. D.... A....

    There has never been nor ever will be a homosexual win American Idol, there have been several very talented gay people on this show! America is too bigoted to ever allow that. Very sad, Clay is amazing
