Bridge Over Troubled Water is the title song of Simon and Garfunkel's final album together, Bridge Over Troubled Water. In the song "bridge" is used as a metaphor for something stable and comforting, as opposed to the wildly streaming river, representing trouble, pain, and unrest. The song has been covered by many artists since.
