Lyrics

I guess that it was bound to happen
Was just a matter of time
Now I've come to my decision
And it's one of those painful kind
'Cause it seems that you wanted a martyr
Just a regular guy wouldn't do
But baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
You really got to hand it to you, girl
You really tried
But for every time that we spent laughing
There were two times that I cried
'Cause you were trying to make me a martyr
And that's one thing I just couldn't do
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
Tables are meant for turning
And people are bound to change
And bridges are meant for burning
When the people and memories they join aren't the same
Still I hope that you can find another
Who can take what I could not
He'll have to be a super guy or maybe a super God
'Cause I never was much of a martyr before
And I ain't 'bout to start nothing new
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
Tables are meant for turning
And people are bound to change
And bridges are meant for burning
When the people and memories they join aren't the same
But I hope that you can find another
Who can take what I could not
You know he'll have to be a super guy or maybe a super God
'Cause I never was much of a martyr before
And I ain't 'bout to start nothing new
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
