The angels shed a tear today
As the rain falls gently down
While two sides bow in reverence
We lay another in the ground
So much love, too much division
A country ripped and torn
From one fabric, a divided Nation
Can kindness be reborn
It’s time for building bridges
Who will take the higher road
Cause when you’re building bridges
Something great inside explodes
Someone to climb that mountain,-make a brand new friend
When we start building bridges, once again
We lift our glasses high tonight
Salute a life well lived
But we break with heavy hearts
When we cannot forgive
So much joy, we remember
Like a Father to his Son
Can we love just one more neighbor
Or do we hit and run
It’s time for building bridges
Who will take the higher road
Cause when you’re building bridges
Something great inside explodes
Someone to climb that mountain,-make a brand new friend
It’s time for building bridges,
When we start building bridges
Can we start building bridges, once again
