Under the Bridge (Red Hot Chili Peppers cover) Lyrics

Under The Bridge
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in, the city of cities
Lonely as I am, together we cry, we cry, we cry

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, ohh, ohh, oh, oh

I drive the streets, cos he's my companion
I walk through the fields, cos he know who I am
He sees my good deeds and he kisses me windy
I never worry now that is a lie

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, ooh, oh
One time, two time, three time, four time

It's hard to believe there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have his love, the city he loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, eh, oh

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that dat
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way

Under The Bridge
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend

Lonely as I am, together we cry, we cry, we cry

I walk through the fields, cos he know who I am
He sees my good deeds and he kisses me windy
I never worry now that is a lie

It's hard to believe that I'm all alone
At least I have his love, the city he loves me
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way, eh, oh

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

I don't ever wanna feel like I did that dat
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way
All the way

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

WHY? WHY? WHY? what is the point this is just a pure insult. Next week we are going to have Lateralus covered by S clun juniors who have put a dance to it and do a video with them running through a shopping mall getting loads of kids to dance with them, this is just pop manufacturers trying to squeeze money out of a classic like all the sex pistols, compilations being released right now. ITs destroying music, i mean i heard people at my school saying things like this is a good song by all saints completely oblivious to the original

You want my opinion read my first post to this god awful piece of shit. Just thought id bring a quote by Anthony kiedis-

Q- What did you think of All-SAints covering Under the Bridge?

AK- It was kinda funny. They were so preety and clean and manicured, to me it looked like they had no idea what they were singing about , because the song is about such a dark time

This song is a tribute to the late Hillel Slovak.. The best friend Anthony had, who tragically died.. It relates to what anthony regards as the lowest point in his life, when he and his drug contact went into L.A gang territory and went under their bridge to try their heroin..
