Broken Bridges
Toby Keith · Other Songs - Toby Keith
But we never see them there.
Some cross troubled waters,
Some don't go nowhere.
Some you wouldn't step on if your tryin' to save your soul.
One comes with a keeper,
When it's time to pay the toll.
Some aren't ment to last forever,
Some are made of stone.
Some are ment to cross together,
Some you go alone.
Some the slightest wind can send in crashing to the ground.
I set a bridge on fire,
But I could not burn it down.
Here I am prayin' for forgiveness,
And I can see you
Standin' on the other side,
And here I go (here I go)
And baby it's a heavy load ( it's a heavy load)
I have crossed some broken bridges in my time
(Instramental)
Now here I am (now here I am)
Prayin' for forgiveness (Prayin' for forgiveness)
I can see you (Oh I can see you)
Standin' on the other side (standin' on the other side)
Here I go (Now here I go)
And buddy it's a heavy load (and baby it's a heavy load)
But, I have crossed some broken bridges in my time(crossed some broken bridges in my time)
Yes I have crossed some broken bridges in my time...
