Lyrics:

Oh, I've been stumbling through the darkness
Trying to feel the ground beneath my feet
Afraid of moving much in any direction
Stuck where the past and the future meet

But I finally got my first good look, a little fire was all it took
And as the flames grew brighter, I saw everything that I'd missed
Once you get your courage up, you light a match and your eyes adjust
It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge

And there were things I saw that I'm not proud of
Things that I'd do different now from then
But when I really make myself get honest
It's over and I can't go back again

'Cause I finally got my first good look, a little fire was all it took
And as the flames grew brighter, I saw everything that I'd missed
Once you get your courage up, you light a match and your eyes adjust
It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge

It sure is hard to let go
And to leave the past behind
But there ain't no other way
That you can find some peace of mind

Well I finally got my first good look, a little fire was all it took
And as the flames grew brighter, I saw everything that I'd missed
Once you get your courage up, you light a match and your eyes adjust
It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge

It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge
