Billyburg Bridge

lyrics

Must've been some night on the Billyburg Bridge
Must've been some fright to make you do what they said
I don't believe we can account but what is done is did

You should've seen the faces of me and your friends
They say that you can't know what lies in the hearts of men
I don't believe we can account the means or the ends

To think that we were strangers once in this strange land
We passed through mortal dangers to catch-as-catch-can
I don't use coincidence to makeshift and mend

I can see the traces you left everywhere
They're written in the buildings and streets and the air
I don't think we could erase you even if we dared

'Cause we're searching for a reason
To say it's no one's fault
With the turning of the seasons I go past
Every single inch that I have trod

Must've been some night on the Billyburg Bridge
Must've been some fright to make you do what they said
I don't believe we can account but what is done is did

Dutch Courage St. Louis, Missouri

He continues to write and record music in his STL home.
