Burning bridges

Burning bridges Lyrics

Yesterday she thanked me 
For oilin' that front door 
This morning when she wakes 
She won't be thankful anymore 
She'll never know how much I cared 
Just that I couldn't stay 
And I'll never know the reason 
Why I always run away 

Burning bridges one by one 
What I'm doin' can't be undone 
And I'm always hoping someday 
I'm gonna stop this runnin' around 
But every time the chance comes up 
Another bridge goes down 

Last night we talked of old times 
Families and home towns 
We wondered if we'd both agree 
On where we'd settle down 
And I told her that we'd cross that bridge 
Whenever it arrived 
Now through the flames I see her 
Standin' on the other side 

Burning bridges one by one 
What I'm doin' can't be undone 
And I'm always hoping someday 
I'm gonna stop this runnin' around 
But every time the chance comes up 
Another bridge goes down 

Like ashes on the water 
I drift away in sorrow 
Knowing that the day 
My lesson's 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 burned 

Burning bridges one by one 
What I'm doin' can't be undone 
And I'm always hoping someday 
I'm gonna stop this runnin' around 
But every time the chance comes up 
Another bridge goes down 

Another bridge goes down
