BRIDGE OF SIGHS
(Billy Reid)

Also recorded by: Georgia Gibbs; Anne Shelton.


Tell me that old love story
But not the same old lies
You know my heart is waiting for you dear
Here on the bridge of sighs

Tell me again you love me
And gaze into my eyes
I'm yours tonight, so why keep me waiting
Here on the bridge of sighs

How many times we pledged our love anew
When little quarrels came our way
I know the reason why I'm missing you
My love of happy yesterday

Tell me you're mine forever
Mine just to idolise
Take me away, stop breaking my heart dear
Here on the bridge of sighs.

(Musical Break)

I know the reason why I'm missing you
My love of happy yesterday

Tell me you're mine forever
Mine just to idolise
Take me away, stop breaking my heart dear
Here on the bridge of sighs.
