Song lyrics
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 angel
Lonely as I am, together we cry

I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
I never worry, now that is a lie.

Well, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way, yeah, yeah, yeah

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

Well, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way
Well, I don't ever want to feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love, take me all the way, yeah, yeah, yeah
oh no, no, no, yeah, yeah
love me, I say, yeah yeah

One time

(under the bridge downtown)
(is where I drew some blood)
is where I drew some blood

(under the bridge downtown)
(i could not get enough)
i could not get enough

(under the bridge downtown)
(forgot about my love)
forgot about my love

(under the bridge downtown)
(i gave my life away)
i gave my life away yeah, yeah yeah

(away)
no, no, no, yeah, yeah

(away)
no, no, i say, yeah, yeah

(away)

Here I stay

yesterday listening to the radio i heard the story about how anthony wrote this as a poem, made a tape of it with a melody, then later the producer found it in his place. they made it into the song and now it is awesome!!!!!!!! apparently there really is a bridge, just outside of L.A. that anthony used to hang around and get his drugs. hence the name of the song.

Can't deny one of their best songs... Although "Give it Away" will still always embody what the Chilis are all about... but there's something really cool about the fact that Anthony wrote and wouldn't shot it to anyone, and then the producer recommended that he show it to the band and they just laid down the music to go with it... one take wonder.

this song is about anthony's depression over his drug addiction, it was originaly ritten as a poem but then they made it in2 a song. he only showed it 2 his producer cuz he dnt want the band 2 see how lonely and depressed he was, but the producer saw how good it could be and adviced themn to release it. good desion mate. awsum song tho theyr is better songs by RHCP. not many.
