LYRICS:
The Bridge of Woven Years
(Verse 1)
There’s a bridge of stone and ivy thread,
Where the streams remember what once was said.
No road leads in, and none leads out—
Yet feet still find it, led by doubt.
(Verse 2)
The wind there hums with an elder tune,
And the trees bend low to kiss the moon.
I walked its span with a heart unsure,
But each step I took felt strangely pure.
(Chorus)
On the bridge of woven years,
I left behind my silent fears.
Each echo was a name I knew,
Each shadow held a part of you.
And though I crossed to lands unclear,
I still return in dreams so near—
To the bridge of woven years.
(Verse 3)
They say the bridge appears in mist,
Where memory and time have kissed.
No stone was carved by mortal hand,
No roots obey the laws of land.
(Chorus)
On the bridge of woven years,
I left behind my silent fears.
Each echo was a name I knew,
Each shadow held a part of you.
And though I crossed to lands unclear,
I still return in dreams so near—
To the bridge of woven years.
(Bridge)
One day I’ll walk it one last time,
No thoughts of end, no fear, no rhyme.
And when I reach that distant shore,
I’ll need no names, no songs, no more.
(Final Chorus)
For on the bridge of woven years,
I laid to rest all loss and tears.
No turning back, no path ahead—
Just starlit stones and words unsaid.
And when the wind no longer hears,
I'll be a song in the woven years
