prechorus
Bridges take a life to build,
burn down in a single day.
Can't trust a single thing you say.

v1
I'm too angry to miss you
but I think about you every day.
Miserable without you
but I can't believe a word you say.

chorus
Bridges burned between our hearts,
never thought we'd fall apart,
but I miss you.

v2
Miss you so much my heart aches
but I don't believe a word you say.
Don't know what it's gonna take
or how we're gonna find our way.

chorus
Like London bridges falling down
we're in pieces on the ground
and I miss you.

bridge
You gave your word and you broke it,
broke your spirit and my heart along the way.
I've given all my love.
You're my angel from above.
Told me once I was your angel too,
so why did you stop being you?
Bridges take a life to build,
burn down in a single day.
Never at a loss for words,
don't trust a single thing you say

[instrumental]

chorus
Bridges take a life to build,
burn down in a single day.
Never at a loss for words,
can't trust a single thing you say.

v3
So betrayed, how can I miss you?
Well I think about you every day.
Miserable without you,
but I can't believe a word you say.

chorus out
Bridges burned between our hearts.
Are you sad too that we're apart?
How do I start to get you back in my heart?

[instrumental]
