Guess that
it was bound to happen,
just a matter of time
Well I've come to my decision,
and it's one of a painful kind
Cause it seems like you wanted a martyr,
just a regular guy couldn't do
Oh baby, I can't hang
upon no lover's cross for you
Well I really got ta hand it to ya,
girl you really tried
But for every time that we
spent laughing
there were two times that I cried
You were trying to make me a martyr
and that's one thing I just couldn't do
So baby I can't hang
upon no lover's cross for you
Tables are meant for turnin',
people are bound to change
Bridges are meant for burnin',
when the people and memor
ies they join are the same
So I hope that you can find another
who could take what I could not
He'd 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 nothin' new
Oh baby, I can't hang
upon no lover's cross for you
Tables are meant for turning,
and people are bound to change
Bridges are meant for burning,
and the people and memories
they join are the same
So I hope that you can find another
who could take what I could not
You'd 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 nothin' new
And baby I can't hang
upon no lover's cross for
you you
