The Bridge I’m Still Building On
Settin’ alone by the telephone wishing you would call
A lump in my throat as I read your note still pinned to the wall
You gave all you could took more than you should
You couldn’t stand no more
Now it’s plain to see that I need someone to love me like you did before
The saddest of all it’s too late I recall what all this is about
The tears I can see that you’re leaving me was your only way out
If there was something I could do to get me over you I’d surely try
What I wouldn’t give just to think that I could live with your goodbye
All the silence tells think of me I’m afraid I’m going under
Trying to get over you God it’s gettin’ me down
Are you satisfied with me are you happy to be gone
Or have you already burned the bridge that I’m still building on
Oh the silence sounds like thunder I’m afraid I’m going under
Trying to get over you God it’s gettin’ me down
Are you satisfied with me are you happy to be gone
Have you already burned the bridge that I’m still building on
Have you already burned the bridge that I’m still building on
