This Bridge

As he walked through the doorway he said
I'm never going back
To the hell of the heat and the sand
And the sun beating on my back

It'll be another year they said now
Before you can go back home
Back to the world you thought that
You thought that you used to know

But all this mess
Is all I can't.
Yes, all I can't
Get past

Hold on, don't take that one last step
This bridge will never mend itself
My life with you is all that's left
Don't leave me behind to find myself

As she walked through the doorway she said
I can't take much more
Of the hell of the bills and the chores
And the feeling I'm all alone

But all this mess
Is all I can't.
Yes, all I can't
Get past

Hold on, don't take that one last step
This bridge will never mend itself
My life with you is all that's left
Don't leave me behind to find myself

So how could you understand
The memories that cloud the soul of this man

Well, they thought that since he's home now
Everything would be fine
But a war doesn't change just the fighters, no
It's changes everyone's life

Hold on, don't take that one last step
This bridge will never mend itself
My life with you is all that's left
Don't leave me behind to find myself
