Dashboard Confessional - Water And Bridges lyrics

rate me

There's things I know I should have mentioned sooner

But I didn't know how

I'm sorry I lost you

I never thought that this could come between us

I know its water and bridges now

But what's the sense in carrying around

This weight, these words are tearing me apart

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a mouth to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

That face, I know exactly what you're thinking

But I'm certain this time is different

And that's why I can't pretend that everything is mended

I know I've tried to for too long now

But what's the sense in carrying around

This weight, these words are tearing me apart

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a mouth to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

Oh save me from a grey life

Oh save me from a grey life

I paid the price with my soul

Oh save me

And that's enough for the back to break

That's enough for a mouth to take

But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away

And that's the sign of a solemn man

I'll make the best of the best I can

And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance

If I ever get my chance

If I ever get my chance

If I ever get my chance
