"Cross Over The Bridge" lyrics

Sister, cross over the bridge, ooh

If you're a girl who has a guy at each and every port
And you forget the rules of love that life has always taught
And if you break as many hearts as ripples in a stream
Well, sister, here's the only way that you can be redeemed

Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of living, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Sister, cross over the bridge, ooh

If you have built a boat to take you to the greener side
And if that boat is built of every lie you ever lied
You'll never reach the Promised Land of love, I guarantee
'Cause lies cannot hold water and you'll sink into the sea

Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of living, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Sister, cross over the bridge

I know it isn't easy to resist temptation's call
But think of how your broken heart will hurt you when you fall
And someday you will find that you are hopelessly in love
And she'll belong to someone else as sure as stars above

Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of living, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Sister, cross over the bridge
