Patty Loveless - You Burned The Bridge lyrics

You wanted your freedom, well, man look around Now you're trapped by her memory and the cold haunting sound Of your restless heart, she never could take Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames Like a whistle blowin' from a fast movin' train The words that she said still ring true in your brain And you cry Ike a baby at the drop of her name Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames Now, you sift through the ashes for one piece of hope You're searching your heart for the same You left her waiting on the other side for a true love that never came Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames Now the smoke rises up from your last cigarette And the whiskey goes down like a shot of regret 'Cause you know that you've lost her and you know who's to blame Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
