Lyrics
?Let That Bridge Burn?
©1998 Cindy Marotta/ Donna Galbraith
It?s been the only place you?ve known
No matter how bad, you called it home
Things have happened there
Pain you couldn?t bear
Why don?t you face the fact
You just keep looking back
Chorus
Sometimes that bridge has got to burn
Through the embers of a broken past we learn
Sometimes that road has got to turn
Let that bridge burn
Let that bridge burn
I know you know that I?m no angel
I?ve got a story of my own to tell
I know what you?re going through
There?s nothing I can do
Until you face the fact
You can?t keep looking back
Chorus
Sometimes that bridge has got to burn
Through the embers of a broken past we learn
Sometimes that road has got to turn
Let that bridge burn
Let that bridge burn
Bridge
I?m only saying what a friend can say
I know you can?t go on hurting this way
Chorus
