I watched you pace from shore to shore, |
|
between his best interests and yours. |
|
All broken promises ignored, |
|
he took everything you gave him and more. |
|
You said compassion is all I know, |
|
and it's hard to find the strength to let go. |
|
Sometimes you've got to burn a bridge to change your life. |
|
Sometimes you've got to start a fire to make it right. |
|
Well you can waste your time and pace your feet down to the bone, |
|
counting on a faith he's never known, |
|
a second chance he's never earned. |
|
Well you can shut yourself off from the person that you truly deserve. |
|
Whoa, smoke signals lead you home alone. |
