George Strait - By The Light Of A Burning Bridge Lyrics
Oh, I've been stumblin' through the darkness,Tryin' to feel the ground beneath my feet.Afraid of movin' much in any direction:Stuck where the past and the future meet.But I fin'lly got my first good look:A little fire was all it too.An' as the flames grew brighter,I saw everything that I'd missed.Once you get your courage up,You light a match an' your eyes adjust:It's amazing what a man can see,By the light of a burnin' bridge.An' there were things I saw that I'm not proud of.Things that I'd do diff'rent now from then.But when I really make myself get honest,It's over and I can't go back again.'Cause I fin'lly got my first good look:A little fire was all it took.An' as the flames grew brighter,I saw everything that I'd missed.Once you get your courage up,You light a match an' your eyes adjust:It's amazing what a man can see,By the light of a burnin' bridge.Instrumental break.It sure is hard to let go and to leave the past behind,But there ain't no other way that you can find some peace of mind.When I fin'lly got my first good look:A little fire was all it took.An' as the flames grew brighter,I saw everything that I'd missed.Once you get your courage up,You light a match an' your eyes adjust:It's amazing what a man can see,By the light of a burnin' bridge.It's amazing what a man can see,By the light of a burnin' bridge.
