“It’s basically based on two extremes: the first being a man who wants to kill himself and the second being love at first sight. He’s standing on the bridge about to jump and he’s stopped by a woman. They see each other and fall in love. She basically says, ’Come with me, it’s all going to be fine’. The song only offers a snippet of someone’s life, so we don’t know what happens at the end of it.“
— Theo Hutchcraft, Hurts

On a bridge across the Severn on a saturday night,
Susie meets the man of her dreams.
He says that he got in trouble and if she doesn’t mind
He doesn’t want the company
But there’s something in the air
They share a look in silence and everything is understood
Susie grabs her man and puts a grip on his hand
As the rain puts a tear in his
