Lyrics The Bridge - Scott Walker
I′ve
watched
her
from
the
river
banks
I
knew
her
when
she
danced
with
dreams
White
doves
were
there
to
dress
her
hair
And
so
was
Madelaine
At
night
the
people's
faces
danced
Like
pearls
colliding
on
the
breast
Of
fat
Marie
whose
thunder
laugh
Was
just
a
thread
from
crying
Her
sailors
stained
her
cobblestones
With
wine
and
piss
and
death
desire
And
sometimes
blood
for
Madelaine
Whose
laughter
was
the
night
Her
girls
would
lift
their
dresses
high
And
breathe
the
stars
and
kiss
the
sky
She′d
smother
them
with
whispers
then
Embrace
them
with
her
sighs
Before
the
bottle
dulled
my
eyes
And
made
me
so
I
couldn't
stand
I'd
overact
and
play
the
clown
When
Madelaine
would
cry
And
now
I
watch
from
riverbanks
I
watch
it
weave
it′s
memories
White
doves
turned
gray
and
flew
away
And
so
did
Madelaine
