Water and Bridges

[Verse 1]

There's things I know I should've mentioned sooner

But I didn't know how, I'm sorry I lost you

I never thought that this could come between us

I know it's water and bridges now

But what's the sense of carrying around this weight?

These words are tearing me apart

[Chorus]

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a life to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

[Verse 2]

That face, I know exactly what you're thinking

But I'm certain this time is different

And that's why I can't pretend that everything is mended

I know I've tried to for too long now

But what's the sense in carrying around this weight?

These words are tearing us apart

[Chorus]

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a life to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

[Bridge]

Oh, save me from a gray life

Oh, save me from the gray life

I've paid the price with my soul

Oh, save me

[Chorus]

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a life to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

[Outro]

If I ever get my chance, if I ever get my chance

If I ever get my chance
