Burning Bridges Lyrics
Yesterday she thanked me
For oiling that front door
This morning when she wakes
She won't be thankful anymoreShe'll never know how much I cared
Just that I couldn't stay
Shell never know the reason why
I always run away[Chorus:]Burning bridges
One by one
What I'm doing
Can't be undoneAnd I'm always hoping someday
I'm gonna stop this running round
But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes downLast night we talked of old times
Families and home towns
She wondered if we both agree on
Where we'd settle downAnd I told her that we'd cross that bridge
Whenever it'd arrive
Now through the flames I see her standing
On the other sideBurning bridges
One by one
What I'm doing
Can't be undoneAnd I'm always hoping someday
I'm gonna stop this running round
But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes downLike ashes on the water
I drift away in sorrow
Knowing that the day my lessons finally learned
I'll be standing at a river
Staring out across tomorrow
And the bridge I need to get there
Will be a bridge that I have burnedBurning bridges
One by one
What I'm doing
Can't be undoneAnd I'm always hoping someday
I'm gonna stop this running round
But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes downAnother bridge goes down
