Love Can Build a Bridge Lyrics
[Verse 1: Cher, Chrissie Hynde]
I'd gladly walk across the desert
With no shoes upon my feet
To share with you the last bite
Of bread I had to eat
I'd would swim out to save you
In your sea of broken dreams
When all your hopes are sinking
Let me show you what love means
[Chorus: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Cher and Chrissie Hynde with Neneh Cherry]
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
[Verse 2: Cher, Neneh Cherry]
I would whisper love so loudly
Every heart could understand
That love and only love
Can join the tribes of man
I would give my heart's desire
So that you might see
The first step is to realize
That it all begins with you and me
I'd gladly walk across the desert
With no shoes upon my feet
To share with you the last bite
Of bread I had to eat
I'd would swim out to save you
In your sea of broken dreams
When all your hopes are sinking
Let me show you what love means
[Chorus: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Cher and Chrissie Hynde with Neneh Cherry]
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
[Verse 2: Cher, Neneh Cherry]
I would whisper love so loudly
Every heart could understand
That love and only love
Can join the tribes of man
I would give my heart's desire
So that you might see
The first step is to realize
That it all begins with you and me
[Chorus: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Cher and Chrissie Hynde with Neneh Cherry]
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
[Guitar Solo: Eric Clapton]
[Bridge: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Cher and Chrissie Hynde with Neneh Cherry]
When we stand together
It's our finest hour
We can do anything, anything
Anything anything
Keep believin' in the power
[Chorus: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Neneh Cherry, all]
Love can build a bridge (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Between your heart and mine (Listen now)
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
Love can build a bridge (Oh, love and only love)
Between your heart and mine (It's in your heart and mine)
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
[Guitar Solo: Eric Clapton]
[Bridge: Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Cher and Chrissie Hynde with Neneh Cherry]

We can do anything, anything
Anything anything

Love can build a bridge (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Between your heart and mine (Listen now)
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
Love can build a bridge (Oh, love and only love)
Between your heart and mine (It's in your heart and mine)
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
Don't you think it's time?
