TRACY CHAPMAN LYRICS - Bridges

"Bridges"



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



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



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
