Shaky Bridges Lyrics

by Sean McConnell

I've put my name on songs I never sang
I've gambled on my muse
I told her "baby, that didn't mean a thing"
She looked at me confused

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e120603-sean_mcconnell~shaky_bridges_lyrics.html ]
Crossing those shaky bridges, and blurry lines
Deals with the devil on that old cross road
What are you willing to compromise?
You could buy the world for the price of your soul

There is a compass on a golden string
Hanging 'round every heart
There is a bell that will or will not ring
It knows the light from the dark

Knows on those shaky bridges, and blurry lines
Deals with the devil on that old crossroad
What are you willing to compromise?
You could buy the world for the price of your soul, yeah

We've all done things we wish we never did
God knows we will a thousand times again
But we are a blade that is made strong by fire
Every healer has been hurt, every honest man has lied

Crossing those shaky bridges, and blurry lines
Deals with the devil on that old cross road
What are you willing to compromise?
You could buy the world at the price of your soul
You could buy the world for the price of your soul
You could buy the world for the price of your soul
