By the lights of St. Dominic Street Bridge she was waiting She was waiting for me to arrive And she told me much later that while she was waiting She had felt so in love and alive And then much later we rolled up at her house Then we laughed at the stupidest thing And then we cried when we thought of tomorrow And the strangeness the future can bring Let your pain just leave you when you sing she said Let your pain just leave you when you sing Let your pain just leave you when you sing she said And may God to you his mercy bring Now the lights of St. Dominic Street Bridge are still shining But I never thought we would survive When I think of the sad things that we did together I still feel so in love and alive And then much later we sometimes go walking And then I have to fight back the tears When I think of the thing that she told me so often And the way that it calmed down my fears
