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
