I watched you pace from shore to shore,
between his best interests and yours.
All broken promises ignored,
he took everything you gave him and more.
You said compassion is all I know,
and it's hard to find the strength to let go.
Sometimes you've got to burn a bridge to change your life.
Sometimes you've got to start a fire to make it right.
Well you can waste your time and pace your feet down to the bone,
counting on a faith he's never known,
a second chance he's never earned.
Well you can shut yourself off from the person that you truly deserve.
Whoa, smoke signals lead you home alone.
