Lyrics Reba McEntire

Reba McEntire

The Bridge You Burn

Better hang on to that matchbook with his number on it

But not for the reason you think

There'll come a day girl that you're gonna want it

To light the past up in flames

He's the lesson you learn

He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn

He's that one last look back when you finally get over the hurt

He's the bridge you burn

He's the bridge you burn

No you're not the first one to think they can change him

Well that line of fools is so long

But you'll be the only one you have to blame when

You wake up and he's gone

He's the lesson you learn

He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn

He's that one last look back when you finally get over the hurt

He's the bridge you burn, burn down

Then you turn around and say

Man that was a close one

He's the lesson you learn

He's the dead end you see when you realize you made a wrong turn

He's the lesson you learn

He's that one last look back when you get over the hurt

He's the bridge you burn

He's the bridge you burn

Yeah he's the bridge you burn

He's the bridge you burn

Burn it down girl
