The Bridge Songtext
von Kathy Mattea

Sometimes I wonder what′s the right thing
Maybe you could let me know
We were struck by lightning
A long time ago

No one else's vision
Ever let me see
How your good intentions
Cast their spell on me

Now there′s a bridge I can't get over
There's a weight I can′t get under
It′s a dream I still remember
But it won't come true

If there′s a lesson I would learn it
I would cross it now or burn it
But there's a bridge I can′t get over
Between me and you


Love can take some crazy side streets
It can twist and turn you around
Looking for the straight and narrow
Doubt it can be found

When life's hesitation
Sets somebody free
Baby in your wisdom
Shine your grace on me

Now there′s a bridge I can't get over
There's a weight I can′t get under
It′s a dream I still remember
But it won't come true

If there′s a lesson I would learn it
I would cross it now or burn it
But there's a bridge I can′t get over
Between me and you

And I have lived with indecision
And hoped without a reason
Now I'm tired of all this self-pity, baby
Give me the room to leave


If there′s a lesson I would learn it
I would cross it now or burn it
But there's a bridge I can't get over
Between me and you
Oh, between me and you
