Burning Bridges
Garth Brooks
intro.....
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
chorus....
Burning bridges one by one
What I'm doing 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 & home towns
She 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 thru the flames I see her
standin on the other side
chorus....
Like ashes on the water I drift away in sorrow
Knowing that the day my lesson's finaly learned
I'll be standin at a river staring out across tomorrow
And the bridge I need to get there
Will be a bridge that I have burned
chorus....
