Floating Bridge

Post by ken »

floating bridge - frankie big face

in my imagination
we live side by side
and our rooftops are connected
by a floating bridge

in place of ventilation
we breath each other's air
with our bronchial tubes connected
by a pipeline

and we fly higher than we need to
we fly higher than we ought to
we fly higher, then come crashing to the floor
then we laugh and laugh
'til we can't anymore

in my imagination
we're both ten feet tall
and we dance instead of walking
and no-one's laughing

in place of entertainment
we read each other's mail
in as many different accents
as we can think of

and we fly higher than we need to
we fly higher than we ought to
we fly higher, then come crashing to the floor
then we laugh and laugh
'til we can't anymore

in my imagination
we live side by side
and our rooftops are connected
by a floating bridge

Floating Bridge
by Factor T

So clearly i remember that fateful day
when i had to bid my only love goodbye
she looked at me with her big blue eyes
and said, "the lord be with you by and by"

I'm gonna make it back home
I'm gonna make it home
if I've made it this far
then I know that there's a way
to get back to the place where i belong

rollin' in my lovin baby's arms


will my baby wait for me there beside that old oak tree
across the floating bridge and by the riverside
i am coming home today
and together we will stay
in a cabin in the hills of Caroline

Floating Bridge by PrayForMojo

It's time to blow this joint, she said to me
I've been sitting at this bar far to long, you see
At the Floating Bridge, never seen so many lovely faces
Particularly for one of these back alley type of places

Long long time I've been waiting for you to come over here
Just sitting down sippin on my glass of beer
She said I know you're not from this part of town
But you came to the exact right place to get down

There's no problems here, no not one at all
At the Floating Bridge we drown our sorrows out in alcohol
No one's lonely here, no one that you can see
And tonight my darling, you are going to be with me
You're gonna be with me
You are gonna be with me

Nanja Sorya of
_The Pickup Artists_
presents ...
The Floating Bridge (of Dreams)

(intro)
They say this world is just a floating bridge of dreams.
Well, that may be...
But, Ukifune, when you're lying next to me,
Ah, I swear it feels so real.

(verse)
I hear the snow fall softly,
See your warm breast rise,
Inhale your dark hair's essence,
Move my hand upon your thigh.

[Everything I know, and all that is --
Is it truly only a floating bridge?]

(chorus)
Doo doo doo n doo
Doo doo doo n doo
All I can dream about is you.

(bridge)
Two years have passed
And you've taken vows, my love.
Leaving me to dream on this floating bridge, alone.

Repeat chorus

"Floating Bridge" - Doctor Worm

Peer
In my mind
You will find
There is something to be
Viewed
It is crude
Yet exudes
Such a pristine aura

I cannot find a way
To a better place than this
It is out of reach again

Fear
Has a home
In our bones
And the side effects never
Desist
They subsist
In our midst
And I'm growing impatient

I cannot find a way
To a better place than this
It is out of reach again

Cross the floating bridge in mind
All the sanity you've lost is mine

Rainstorms and
Thunder, the
Gods have been
Plundered
The devil is
Loose and he's
Wearing your
Shirt

I cannot find a way

Cross the floating bridge in mind
All the sanity you've lost is mine

Floating Bridge by MC Frontalot

the beam bridge, seeming to be the ridge spanner
all manner of planks gets employed under the banner
of progress, 85 yards the max
nobody plummets to the bottom of ravines intact

and so the truss bridge must be seen as an improvement,
cantelever even receiving the translucent
inducement to get wrecked (high-tech)
and watch the Firth of Forth fall in the drink, one should expect

and so you step with the arch bridge, point to every zenith
say that gravity's smart, you settle stones just like a genius
but I seen this tumble like crumbs from cookie's lips
the aquaducts no longer seem to irrigate worth spit

the suspension bridge could go like seven thousand feet
but it's seven plus one from here to where I wanna be
so I free up the styrofoam peanuts that i been packing
if I'm lacking in boats it's cause I'm fearful of the kraken
now I'm stacking little floaters and I'm banding them together,
I could travel in this manner over water to wherever
if the bonds hold tight let's take a hike to honolu
then you'll be whistling the praises of the float-bridge too

Cool, I just found this, so here's my lyrics for Floating Bridge:

Well, you worked really hard, that much I can tell
And I hope and I pray that it goes over well
Cuz I slipped on the way, I laughed as I fell
You can tell that I sank like a stone

There's a voice in my head that's asking me why
When you walk on a bridge do you wanna stay dry
I mumble aloud to the one passerby
You smile but you leave me alone

We can't call this a suspension bridge
Suspension bridges should suspend
All you've done is gone and tied some barrels up with cable
That's a floating bridge my friend

When I first started out, I was sure it would work
But with each passing step I felt more like a jerk
I was over my head, and it all seemed a blur
Cuz I let something get in my eyes

You got a dry martini, so you think that you're cool
Raise a glass as you laugh by the edge of the pool
With each of us thinking the other a fool
It's a shame that we can't compromise

Watched to many Army training films
Should have watched them to the end
No one ever seems to clever when they're waist-deep in the water
By a floating bridge, my friend

Almost reached you in the middle there
But you just refuse to bend
No one's gonna meet you half-way when you're standing on the sidelines
By a floating bridge, my friend

Well, you worked really hard, that much I can tell
And I hope and I pray that it goes over well
Cuz I slipped on the way, I laughed as I fell
You can tell that I sank like a stone

There's a voice in my head that's asking me why
When you walk on a bridge do you wanna stay dry
I mumble aloud to the one passerby
You smile,
But you leave me
Alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone.
