Dashboard Confessional - Water And Bridges
Capo 2
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
- - - - -
Chorus 1:
And that's enough for
the back to break
That's an awful lot 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
- - - - -
Verse 3:
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 us apart
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Bridge:
Oh save me from a gray life
Oh save me from a gray life
I've paid the price
with my soul Oh save me

Chorus 2:
And that's enough for
the back to break
That's an awful lot 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
