Lyrics Ricky Van Shelton

Ricky Van Shelton

A Bridge I Didn't Burn

I can feel the need and know it won't be long

Until I give into rising weakness and I pick up the phone

I always head in her direction when there's no place else to turn

And tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Pickup where we left off on a lesson still unlearned

It's like I never had a choice where loving her is concerned

So tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

I should have struck the match a long long time ago

But courage takes a backseat when old feelings take control

Lord she plays me like a fool every time that I return

But tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn

Pickup where we left off on a lesson still unlearned

It's like I never had a choice where loving her is concerned

So tonight I'll take a walk across the bridge I didn't burn
