You wanted your freedom, well, man look around
|
Now you're trapped by her memory and the cold haunting sound
|
Of your restless heart, she never could take
|
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
|
|
Like a whistle blowin' from a fast movin' train
|
The words that she said still ring true in your brain
|
And you cry Ike a baby at the drop of her name
|
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
|
|
Now, you sift through the ashes for one piece of hope
|
You're searching your heart for the same
|
You left her waiting on the other side for a true love that never came
|
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
|
|
Now the smoke rises up from your last cigarette
|
And the whiskey goes down like a shot of regret
|
'Cause you know that you've lost her and you know who's to blame
|
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
|
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
|

You Burned The Bridge
