Lyrics of The Bridge You Burn - Reba Mcentire

Better hang on to that matchbook
With his number on it
But not for the reason you think
There'll come a day, girl
That you're gonna want it
To light the past up in flames

He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see
When you realize you made a wrong turn
He's that one last look back
When you finally get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn

No you're not the first one to think they can change him
Well that line of fools is so long
But you'll be the only one you have to blame
When you wake up and he's gone

He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see
When you realize you made a wrong turn
He's that one last look back
When you finally get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn, burn down

Then you turn around and say
Man that was a close one

He's the lesson you learn
He's the dead end you see
When you realize you made a wrong turn
He's the lesson you learn
He's that one last look back
When you get over the hurt
He's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn
Yeah he's the bridge you burn
He's the bridge you burn
Burn it down, girl
