INTRO:
VERSE:
I was coming to the end of a long long walk when a man crawled out of a cardboard box under the
E Street Bridge followed me on to it
I went out halfway across with that homeless shadow tagging along so I

CHORUS:

Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do like that
Cool night on the E Street Bridge when a young man almost ended it I was
Right there wasn't scared a bit and I helped to pull him through
Lookin' at me now you might not know it oh
Lookin' at me now you might not know it I've had my
