Jerry Leger - Can't Stop a Bridge That Needs to Be Burned Lyrics

Someone's haunting this confession
Breaks my day
Keeps me up at night
She loved me for my taste in madness
Then it drove her off the cliff out of this life

Creaking hearts and spellbound eyes
Crash along the highway
I gave her my hand
My smiles were bought from my devotion
But sadness grips the throat
Burns up this land

Come on, honey
Let's take it for granted
Come on, sugar
Keep your cool on this turn
You do the drinking and I'll do the sinking
You can't stop a bridge that needs to be burned

Jumped off the roof
Heard no commotion
Let the window glass cut up my fears
Told me to lose that poet's struggle
Throw away the candy and steer the wheel

Come on, baby
Sing it like Satan
Come on, sweety
Haven't you learned
Don't wanna be vengeful but they got the matches
You can't stop a bridge that needs to be burned

I'm chewing up what's left of this daydream
Calling your number
Keep me on the line
If you think I'm a pleasure when we're kissing sloppy
Then try me one last silly time

Come on, honey
Let's take it for granted
Come on, sugar
Keep your cool on this turn
You do the drinking and I'll do the sinking
You can't stop a bridge that needs to be burned
