Simon & Garfunkel - The 59th Street Bridge Song lyrics

It's not my problem anymore

You see it never really was

So you can stop 'caring' as you call it

and I'll be fine right here

You see that I can play a pretty convincing role

So I don't need you, I don't think I need you

[Chorus:]

But you see through my forever lies

And you are not believing

And I see in your forever eyes

That you are forever healing

You can't hear what I'm not saying

And I can hold out long enough

Treading water I keep from sinking

I'm not one for reaching

You see that I can play a pretty convincing role

So I don't need you, I don't think I need you

[Chorus]

Deny myself, deny my heart

Deny your hand, deny your help

and you offer me eternity

but why should I buy that?

You see that I can play a pretty convincing role

So I don't need you, I don't think I need you

[Chorus x2]
