Broken Bridges

Toby Keith


There are bridges on life's highway 
But we never see them there 
Some cross troubled waters 
Some don't go nowhere

Some you wouldn't step on 
If you're trying to save your soul 
One comes with a keeper 
When it's time to pay the toll

Some aren't meant to last forever 
Some are made of stone 
Some are meant to cross together 
Some you go alone

Some the slightest wind can send them 
Crashing to the ground 
I set our bridge on fire 
But I could not burn it down

And here I am 
Praying for forgiveness 
And I can see you 
Standing on the other side 
And here I go (here I go) 
Baby, it's a heavy load (it's a heavy load) 
And I have crossed some broken bridges in my time

Now here I am (now here I am) 
Praying for forgiveness. 
(Praying for forgiveness) 
I can see you (oh, I can see you) 
Standing on the other side 
(Standing on the other side) 
Here I go (now here I go) 
And buddy it's a heavy load 
(Baby, it's a heavy load) 
And I have crossed some broken bridges in my time 
(Crossed some broken bridges in my time) 
Yes, I have crossed some broken bridges in my time
