Bridge Lyrics by Queensryche

Bridge

[Chris DeGarmo]
You called me up on the phone today
struggling with the right words to say.
Time can change a thing or two.
Time has changed the lives of me and you,
but you know... it could have been different dad.
The word brings back a sweet memory.
Im sitting on a bluff on a broken tree,
by my side a distinguished man giving me
encouragement, telling me I can, and you know ...
youre not there.
You say, Son, lets forget the past,
I want another chance, gonna make it last.
Youre begging me for a brand new start, trying
to mend a bridge thats been blown apart, but you know...
you never built it dad.
So I sit here through the night, and I
write myself to sleep, and time keeps ticking...
Time has made you finally realize your
loneliness and your guilt inside.
Youre reaching for something you never had,
turning around now youre loocking back, and you know...
Im no there.
You say, son, lets forget the past.
I want another chance, gonna make it last.
Youre begging me for a brand new start, trying
to mend a bridge thats been blown apart, but you know ...
you never built id dad.
