Conway Twitty
"One Bridge I Didn't Burn"

I know how long it's been
So, if I can't come in
Then let me just talk to you through the door

I'm a man without a place
Lost, and lookin' for a trace
Of the warm and tender love we had before

I closed every door behind me
Shook my shoes and walked away
Turned my back on you and everything I had yesterday

It's a long, hard road
That leads back from the point of no return
And, I'm just lookin' for one bridge I didn't burn

This river looks so wide
Standing on the lonely side
And, wishing I could be back home again

I'd do anything at all
Just to find a way across
And, to know that you'd forgive the fool I've been

I closed every door behind me
Shook my shoes and walked away
Turned my back on you and everything I had yesterday

It's a long, hard road
That leads back from the point of no return
And, I'm just lookin' for one bridge I didn't burn [unverified]
