== Information ==
 
Bridge Over Water is a cover of a Simon & Garfunkel song of the same name. Bellamy's version was released on September 11th, 2020, two years after [https://youtu.be/iBRZH_ZmZOU?t=103 Bellamy mentioned he'd love to cover a Simon & Garfunkel song].
 
== Additional Information ==
 
Matt's cover is simple in instrumentation, only featuring an acoustic guitar, an organ and a keyboard. Bellamy excluded the third verse, which appears in the original, starting with the line "Sail on Silver Girl...".
 
This is the first cover by a different artist outside of Muse, released under Bellamy's own name.
 
== Lyrics ==
 
{{lyrics|
When you're weary
and feeling small.
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all, all.
I'm on your side, oh,
when times get rough
and friends just can't be found.
 
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
 
When you're down and out,
when you're on the street.
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I'll take your path, oh,
when darkness comes
and pain is all around.
 
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
