Billy Joel The Bridge Lyrics

The Bridge Lyrics

I know you well enough to tell you've got your reasons
That's not the kind of
code you're inclined to break
Some things unknown are best left alone
foreverAnd if a vow is what it takes
Haven't you paid for your mistakesAfter
the moment passes
And the impulse disappearsYou can still hold
back
Because you don't crack very easilyIt's a time-honored
resolution
Because the danger is always nearIt's with you now
But that
ain't how it was supposed to be
And it's hard to believe after all these
years
It still gives you pain and it still brings tearsAnd you feel like a
fool
'Cause in spite of the rulesYou've got a memoryChorus
