Lyric One Bridge I Didn t Burn

(Steve Dean/Jim McBride)

I know how long it s been
So, if I can t come in
Then let me just talk to you through the door
I m a man without a place
Lost, and lookin for a trace
Of the warm and tender love we had before.

I closed every door behind me, shook my shoes and walked away
Turned my back on you, and everything I had yesterday
It s a long, hard road that leads back from the point of no return
And, I m just lookin for one bridge I didn t burn.

This river looks so wide
Standing on the lonely side
And, wishing I could be back home again
I d do anything at all
Just to find a way across
And, to know that you d forgive the fool I ve been.

I closed every door behind me, shook my shoes and walked away
Turned my back on you, and everything I had yesterday
It s a long, hard road that leads back from the point of no return
And, I m just lookin for one bridge I didn t burn...
