You've painted me in such a favorable light
Hard to recognize, my face has lost the fight
Fresh on the heels of a song in the night
As your voice resolves, easing my mind
This time around I won't burn the bridge to stay warm
So in a departure from norms I'll mean what I say
When we weather those storms we'll still be ok
Given the climate and the time that it takes
This time around I won't burn the bridge to stay warm
Easy conversation, the words are never out of place
Transcending all the miles that separate the two of us
This time around I won't burn the bridge to stay warm
So in a departure from norms I'll mean what I say
When we weather those storms we'll still be ok
Given the climate and the time that it takes
This time around I won't burn the bridge to stay warm
All the things I could say to you
Have been said before me
Much more cleverly
