Verse 1 We tried to make it work, but the fire turned cold, Two hearts holdin’ on to somethin’ already old I walked away slow, but the truth hit fast, Some bridges burn easy when love can’t last. And I kept wonderin’ if I’d ever feel whole again, Or if lonely nights were all I had left to spend. Chorus But sometimes you burn your bridge of love When there’s no happiness at the end of it. Life moves on, pushes you above All the hurt you swore you’d never forget. And out of the blue, someone takes your hand, Shows you life’s got a better place to land. Yeah, two broken hearts can find their way To somethin’ real after all that pain. Verse 2 We met talkin’ stories ’bout the ones who let us down, Laughin’ ’bout how love can spin your world around. Turns out we’d both been missin’ the same little things — Sunday drives, slow songs, simple livin’, wedding rings. And I saw that spark in her eyes when she looked my way, Like maybe her heart had been waitin’ for mine to stay. Chorus ’Cause sometimes you burn your bridge of love When there’s no happiness at the end of it. Life moves on, pushes you above All the hurt you swore you’d never forget. And out of the blue, someone takes your hand, Shows you life’s got a better place to land. Yeah, two broken hearts can find their way To somethin’ real after all that pain. Bridge Maybe love ain’t lost, it’s just takin’ the long way home, Maybe hearts don’t heal till they learn to be alone. But when two stories meet in the middle of the night, You realize every wrong turn led you right. Final Chorus Sometimes you burn your bridge of love So you can cross into somethin’ true. Life moves on, rises above Every tear that ever fell from you. And now she’s here, holdin’ out her hand, Showin’ me life’s a better place to land. Yeah, two souls can find what they’ve been missin’, In a brand‑new love worth livin’.
