(Verse 1)

The echo of a door I closed myself

Is fading now, a whisper, nothing more

I turned away from everything I knew

And walked away from a familiar shore

She had my hand, she had the planned-out years

A quiet life, a calm and steady flame

But then your laugh cut through the static noise

And I knew nothing would ever be the same

I severed ties, I let the bridge fall down

A choice that left some people mystified

But standing here, with nothing left to lose

I found the truth I never could have lied

(Chorus)

And I'd do it all again, a thousand times

Burn every bridge and walk across the coals

For just one chance to see your smile

For just one night to have you and to hold

There's no mountain I won't climb for you
