BRIDGE OF SIGHS
Lyrics by Edward Rogers
Music by J-F Vergel

VERSE 1
Guilty ones get left behind.
Grow up slowly as the world goes blind.
Some in jail… still confined.
Most with sorrow, no peace of mind.
Oh, welcome to my bridge of sighs.
How I wish I could relive my life.

VERSE 2
One day’s heroes, tomorrow’s used toys.
A big pawn game that lies destroys.
Ones with words. The easy prey.
Change anything you tell them to say.
Oh, welcome to my bridge of sighs.
I wish I could relive my life.

CHORUS
Don’t want the fear of leaving unknown.
No one remembers, it remains untold.
A small sign to show the way
That you know truth didn’t have its day.
Leave a mark to remember me;
A tiny nick in history
To let you know I was here.
Celebrate my life with a tear.

VERSE 3
Easy light. Easy prey.
Fast way to solve a mystery.
The view from here… Too small to see.
Take my last steps of liberty.
Oh, welcome to my bridge of sighs.
How I wish I could retell my life.

CHORUS
Don’t want the fear of leaving unknown.
No one remembered, it remains untold.
Some small mark to show the way
That you know truth didn’t have its day.
Please name a star to remember me…
A moment in history
To let you know I was here.
Celebrate my life with a tear.

VERSE 4
One last view from the bridge of sighs.
A mask of death awaits the other side.
Last tale to tell… One song to sing
As the executioner, he takes his swing.
Welcome to my bridge of sighs
As you lead me to the guilty line.
Innocence would reveal the truth declined.
Oh, welcome to my bridge of sighs.
