A Bridge I Didn't Burn

(album: A Bridge I Didn't Burn - 1993)

I can feel the need and know it won't be long
Until I give into rising weakness and I pick up the phone
I always head in her direction when there's no place else to turn
And tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn
Pickup where we left off on a lesson still unlearned
It's like I never had a choice where loving her is concerned
So tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

I should have struck the match a long long time ago
But courage takes a backseat when old feelings take control
Lord she plays me like a fool every time that I return
But tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn
Pickup where we left off on a lesson still unlearned
It's like I never had a choice where loving her is concerned
So tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn
