All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely

Baby I
Never meant to hurt you
Sometimes the best intentions
Still don't make things right
But all my ghosts they find me
Like my past they think they own me
In dreams and dark corners they surround me
Till I cry I cry

Let me take this time to set the record straight
Let me take this time to take it all back
Let me take this time to tell you how I felt
Let me take this time to try and make it right

All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely

But you can
Walk away
Be all alone
Spend all your time
Thinking about the way things used to be
If love feels right
You work it out
You don't give it up
Baby

Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
You should take some time maybe sleep on it tonight
You should take some time baby heed the words I said
You should take some time think about your life
You should take some time before you throw it all away

All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely

I ain't got the time
To sit here and wait around
But I got the time
If you say I'm what you want

So all the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely
