Willie Nelson - 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.
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.
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 silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
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.

  1. m.... s....

    I love Willie Nelson and I love this song ..So I was scared to listen to this because I did not want to be Disappointed ..But Willie You did Not disappoint !

  2. D.... O....

    What a amazing song , Willie is and stays the best

  3. T.... N....

    Willie is, what all the others want to be.

  4. a.... d....

    Ay qué alivio,como brisa nocturna luego de día de mucho calor,sofocante,pesado , asfixiante.
    Así me suena,a descanso, reparo, hospitalidad,respiro,aire.

  5. M.... ....

    Never tell me WN can’t sing! An American treasure if ever there was one!

  6. j.... ....

  8. S.... ....

    God bless Willie Nelson. He is America.

  9. B.... B....

    Mighty cables that only omnipotence could break. Standing on the promises.

    The journey of a thousand miles,, starts with that first unsure step, faith.

  10. R.... R....

    Hell of a song willie

  11. f.... g....

    He is the man .......no doubt

  12. a.... d....

    A mí modo de entender :

    Se está frente a las cataratas del Iguazu en uno de sus saltos o en su gran olla y se escucha o rememora ésta canción,con ésta voz para mí es exelente,y entonces se comprende todo.
    Por mí que cada quien haga como le parezca y/ o decida.

    Yo propongo las cataratas y la música.

  13. p.... d....

    I have listened to this so many times and never realized you created
    it the day my home burnt down. Kitchen fire. This video helped me get
    through very hard times. Thank you.

  14. A.... S....

    why do people dislike this?! This is wonderful!!!!!

  15. M.... L....

    Didn't know what I was missing there for awhile

  16. S.... H....

    Damn!!!!!

  17. A.... L....

    The last of a dying breed that's for sure!!

  18. D.... P....

    Hi, I’m Willie Nelson.
    I’m going to sing/write songs that will make you cry.
    As you were.

    D.... P....

    Write?
    Good remix.

  19. J.... M....

    willie nelson best singer i have heard he sings from the heart

  20. M.... ....

    My mother absolutely loved Willie. She has been gone over 18 years now. So strange how comforting the sound of his voice is because it was always on when I was growing up. Funny thing is I hated Willie when I was a kid. RIP Mom and Dad.

  21. H.... T....

    Perfection ❤️❤️

  22. R.... P....

    Just not human if this doesn't rattle a tear.

  23. J.... D....

    Beautiful

  24. a.... d....

    Y por tanto como dije antes de ser inteligente y demas y como dice la canción de Aznavour a quien amo:

    Espero del otro lado igual inteligencia.
    Las noticias suelen ser esquivas.
    Una no gana pa disjusto mija!

    Se verá.

  25. N.... V....

    I’m such a fan of Art Garfunkel that I was really surprised to hear Willie sing his song so well. Never expected this to be his kind of song. It was amazing!

  26. a.... d....

    Yo siempre estaré a favor de los puentes.
    Bien se sabe,a la vista está, de las dos orillas.

    Amo y más que agradecida a ésta bella canción.
    De Simon and Garfunkel si no me equivoco.
    Bueno yo la escuché por primera vez por ése dúo.

  27. S.... S....

    "You Were Always on My Mind" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" 2 songs with satisfying lyrics for relationships that have somehow stood the test of many trials:) Only Willy makes it believable!

    Country music will lose so much without Willie. I have always enjoyed and listened carefully to his music for as long as I remember. Always wanted to go to his concert but I probably won't get that chance. You are the best Willie Nelson

    Quiero decir:

    De groserías hasta la coronilla.


    Yo siempre apelo por el buen trato aunque ni en broma salga bien .Más bien mal y para decirlo todo:

    Sé y ojalá otros y si mi gente mejor diferenciar entre perlas de cultivo y espejitos de colores o montañas de baratijas dijeran los Les Luthiers.

    Bueno! Me gusta creer y pensar que ya sé
    si no me tengo que declarar idiota.
    Y no quiero darles.la razón!

    Lamento tanto que éste tipo de creación no haya sido alimento en el hogar de la infancia.

    Cuadra muy bien en aquellos años.
    Pero yo no idea

  71. a.... d....

    A ver botijas,
    les escucho.

  72. a.... d....

    Y sigo enamorada de éste señor.
    Amo su modo de decir.
    En caso de ser un yanki invasor veré qué hago con él.
    Pero eso después

    Por ahora lo sigo amando.
    Me puede éste viejito.

  73. L.... P....

    Oh, what I love that voice and this Man förever.

  74. W.... G....

    Because of the prevalent times back during the 2002 Olympics, I heard Willie sing this legendary song Bridge over troubled Water. I can see why this is my favorite by him. That song still works today by him.

  75. P.... J....

    A lovely song.

  76. N.... ....

    Why, who would´ve guessed the original of this song could ever be topped. And then I stumble over Willies take.

    N.... ....

    Also try Elvis' version.

  77. M.... K....

    What a wonderful song!!🎸🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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

    Willie. is one of the few singers that sound exactly the same in concert as they do on the radio!

  79. J.... M....

    A voice so rich with emotion. Beautiful

  80. f.... m....

    Love this version

  81. s.... g....

    man ole man this man is a priceless rarity from heart, soul and mind. He's old school but he's a good man that reaches out to us as and trys to help us embrace life even when.the world is a mess like now. Before we were singing songs with hope but now it's all about disdain so I appreciate listening to relics that are heavenly breathtaking.

  82. b.... j....

    love bridge over troubled water and blue eyes crying in the rain

    b.... j....

    Me thinks Paul Simon would too...

  83. D.... Z....

    Interpretazione stupenda... Voce che arriva al ❤.. Grandissimo Willie...

  84. p.... ....

    He's the voice of an earth angel <3 thankfully, he's still with us...drink him in somewhere live if you can be so lucky...he's like a fine wine... Love you Willie.

  85. D.... H....

    Wow so good Willie!!

  86. F.... f....

    Just pure awesomeness

  87. A.... E....

    This is the best version of this song ever. Willie is awesome! I grew up listening to this legend, and I'm very proud of it.

  88. B.... S....

    Is there a song that Willie Nelson sings that he doesn't also own? I ask that with all due respect given to the original recording artist, writer, etc.

  89. J.... L....

    That is my Jesus song 🎆

  90. L.... G....

    Willie is one of the few Artists that can make any song his own Elvis and Eric Clapton are a few other that come to mind .. one of the best. If not the best rendition of a very popular cover up there with Elvis 🕺

  91. K.... M....

    Beautiful!!! No words to salute you Willie, no words...!!!

  92. J.... L....

    And you do 🎆🤠

  93. M.... m....

    How could 262 people press no to this.. God help you if you ever have to know the reality of this song. I pray for you 🙏

  94. J.... L....

    Thank you

  95. a.... d....

    Cómo artista un ingeniero:

    Meta tender puentes.

  96. M.... m....

    January 2019. My old buddy I'm weary now.. Love you so much ♥️.. You are the only singer that can, and ever could bring me comfort. God bless you 🙏Thanks @bunjcuz for posting xx

    M.... m....
