I strike a match to an old love letter
Another weak attempt at lettin` go
I try to put myself together
I know I`m not even close
The time will come
When I turn your memory loose
But I can`t think about that now
No not now
Well I`ll burn that bridge when I get there
When the fire for you has burned out
Well I`ll walk across and cut my loss
The day that I no longer care
Well I`ll burn that bridge when I get there
When you walked out you took off runnin`
Your heart found another home
Now you look at me like we had nothin`
I wish that I could be that cold
When I don`t shake at the mention of your name
That`s when I`ll finally write you off
I`ll write you off
Well I`ll burn that bridge when I get there
When the fire for you has burned out
Well I`ll walk across and cut my loss
The day that I no longer care
Well I`ll burn that bridge when I get there
