Love hurts and burns and scrapes Love brings the wildest escapes But love should be gently beckoned for Not ripped out of me It comes naturally And it comes before anything Changed attitudes don't change the past And conversations won't make it last Every time our bridge falls apart You put it back together with duct tape A valiant effort But I need a whole new bridge I want a bridge built in stone Every pebble comes from the soul You hold my hand and guide me away from the puddles But there should be no puddles in the first place There has been so much rain and heartache and pain I want sunny days again Whether I have a hand to hold or not There will be no puddles to muddy my shoes My feet will then guide me to every dream I left to drift in the sky I kept looking down at my feet to make sure I didn't trip and fall again and again But I deserve to stare at the sun and dance and twirl and be safe and steady on my feet The end of this love is not a defeat We will seek what is ours And grow into our individual powers We will step into prosperity Without having to hold onto each other We will walk to the end of the bridge And find our destinations

The bridge to love
Love hurts and burns and scrapes Love brings the wildest escapes But love should be gently beckoned for Not ripped out of me It comes naturally And it comes before anything Changed attitudes don't change the past And conversations won't make it last Every time our bridge falls apart You put it back together with duct tape A valiant effort But I need a whole new bridge I want a bridge built in stone Every pebble comes from the soul You hold my hand and guide me away from the puddles But there should be no puddles in the first place There has been so much rain and heartache and pain I want sunny days again Whether I have a hand to hold or not There will be no puddles to muddy my shoes My feet will then guide me to every dream I left to drift in the sky I kept looking down at my feet to make sure I didn't trip and fall again and again But I deserve to stare at the sun and dance and twirl and be safe and steady on my feet The end of this love is not a defeat We will seek what is ours And grow into our individual powers We will step into prosperity Without having to hold onto each other We will walk to the end of the bridge And find our destinations
