Lyrics

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Questioning if there will always be another obstacle or challenge to overcome.

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Reiterating the question about the constant presence of obstacles.


Just like the wind finds a resting place

Comparing finding a resting place to the wind finding a place of calm within the land.

Somewhere in the bosom of the land

Metaphorically describing a serene location within the land.

Sowing his rich by the hands of the wise

Symbolizing the act of producing prosperity through the wisdom and work of skilled individuals.

And peace should come to every man

Expressing the hope for peace to be accessible to all individuals.

Just when he thinks he can lay down and roll

Just when one feels they can relax, they encounter what they seek.

He's seen the place he's looking for coming up the road

Spotting the desired destination as it appears ahead on the road.


Oh, is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Repeated questioning whether there will always be challenges to face.

Always one more bridge

Reiterating the idea that there will always be another obstacle.

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Questioning the perpetual presence of hurdles to overcome.


Now I don't wanna sing that same old song

Desire to move away from repetitive themes and seek something new.

I want a new tune that we can all sing along

Expressing a wish for a fresh, inclusive tune everyone can enjoy.

We made new maps, but we didn't change the signs

Highlighting the creation of new perspectives without altering fundamental aspects.

Still say "This is yours and this over here is mine"

Indicating the persistence of territorial divisions despite attempts at change.

Like a little ol' man sitting on a bench

Metaphorically representing an individual unable to break free despite claiming to seek freedom.

He says he rides for freedom, but he can't cross the fence

Expressing skepticism about achieving freedom due to personal limitations.

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Repeating the question about the perpetual presence of obstacles or challenges.


Oh, oh, oh one more

Emphasizing the repeated struggle and near attainment, yet facing another obstacle.

They say I got one more

-

Oh, when you get up over here, you'll find one more

-

When you get around the bend, you see one more

-

Almost made it, one more

-

You're so, so close

-

Come more, but you're almost made it

-

You think you made it, made it at last

Belief of finally reaching success, only to realize there's still more to overcome.

Just take a look and you'll see 99 and a half

Illustrating the feeling of almost reaching the goal, but still a considerable distance away.


Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Reiteration of the persistent presence of hurdles or challenges.

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Questioning if there will always be another obstacle or challenge to face.


Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Questioning the perpetual presence of obstacles or challenges.

Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?

Reiterating the query about whether there will always be another obstacle or challenge.
