            G#                             C#
I'd gladly walk across the desert with no shoes
upon my feet
     D#                             C#
To share with you the last bite of bread
         G#
I had to eat
         G#                           Fm
I would swim out to save you in your sea of broken
dreams
     C#                  G#
When all your hopes are sinking,
D#
let me show you what love means

Chorus:
 G#               D#
Love can build a bridge
    A#m       D#        G#
Between your heart and mine
 G#               C#
Love can build a bridge
                      G#
Don't you think it's time?
 D#                   G#
Don't you think it's time?

I would whisper love so loudly,
every heart could understand
That love and only love can join
the trials of man
I would give my hearts' desire
so that you might see
The first step is to realize,
that it all begins with you and me

Chorus:
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
Don't you think it's time? Oh
Don't you think it's time?

Fm                      D#/G            G#
When we stand together, it's our finest hour
          A#m
We can do anything (Anything)
G#/C
Anything (Anything)
       C#            D#
If we keep believin' in the power

Chorus:
Love can build a bridge
Between your heart and mine
Love can build a bridge
But don't you think it's time?
But don't you think it's time?
(Yeah, yes I do)
Oh, love can build a bridge
(Whoa, love and only love)
Between your heart and mine
(Between your heart and mine)
Love can build a bridge
(Love can build a bridge)
But don't you think it's time?
(Don't you think it's time?)
Don't you think it's time?
