Crossing over, on life's amazing ride.
Crossing over, hope you'll be on the other side.
When the Fremont rises, so majestic,
How can my love be gone?
I cried the day you left me here,
Not sure I could go on.
I went over on the Marquam,
But didn't find you there,
Ross Island didn't bring you back,
But I'll find you still, somewhere.
Crossing over, on life's amazing ride.
Crossing over, hope you'll be on the other side.
From the St. Johns to the Sellwood,
'Cross the Broadway to the Steel,
There's a quiet flame that burns inside,
It's something that I feel.
The Burnside splits the north and south,
The tide within is turning,
If the Hawthorne can't span life and death,
My heart just won't stop burning.
Crossing over, on life's amazing ride.
Crossing over, hope you'll be on the other side.
I go across the Morrison:
You're gone, I know. It's true.
But I'll keep building bridges
Till I cross over to you.
Crossing over, on life's amazing ride.
Crossing over, hope you'll be on the other side.
