Did I lay my lover's dreams down
So you may cross over cross over me
To find the one fate intended... Thought you were so content, so connected
That I made you feel loved more than any man had before
And I held your dreams in high esteem
Any tower I would have erected
But to give you all is a hope I can hold no more Thought I was your long-awaited destination
Oh and in your arms thought my heart finally found its home
So I was shook and shocked when out you walked
With cold resolute resignation
Then you found him and I found myself alone Did I lay my lover's dreams down
So you may cross over cross over me
To find the one fate intended
I hope and pray your joy runs deeper now
And though I've wished it were wished it were me
Maybe I was only meant to be
The lover to restore your faith
Your means to an end
Your bridge to brighter days Said I was someone you couldn't help but fall for
But once out of the fog you could see things as they are
Was my weakness so strong, right-thinking all wrong
Enchanted by your Gaelic folklore
Did I dream too deep, did I cast my hopes too far Did I lay my lover's dreams down
So you may cross over cross over me
To find the one fate intended
I hope and pray your joy runs deeper now
And though I've wished it were wished it were me
Maybe I was only meant to be
The lover to restore your faith
Your means to an end
Your bridge to brighter days One thing my heart would love to learn
Why am I a bridge you had to burn
'Cause I miss you...
