| Well it’s been a long time
|
| Since I learned about the bridge
|
| I try sneaking by
|
| But it’s my feelings that I pay with
|
| Tired of giving, tired of caring
|
| On the tollbridge, I’m forced to pay my way
|
| Some may try to slide right by
|
| Thinking life’s just a free ride
|
| I wanted everything for free
|
| But I know it will never be
|
| Have no money to pay with
|
| And it seems that the bridge is closed
|
| Humble feelings, eating crow
|
| Better try another road
|
| Tired of giving, tired of caring
|
| On the tollbridge, I’m forced to pay my way
|
| Some may try to slide right by
|
| Thinking life’s just a free ride
|
| I wanted everything for free
|
| But I know it will never be
|
| You have got to show control
|
| There’s so much you’ve got to know
|
| As I cross the bridge I watch my step
|
| Better get out of here
|
| Gotta pay my dues, wanna earn respect
|
| Next time I hope that they don’t refuse
|
| Tired of giving, tired of caring
|
| On the tollbridge, I’m forced to pay my way
|
| Some may try to slide right by
|
| Thinking life’s just a free ride
|
| I wanted everything for free
|
| But I know it will never be |
