Garth Brooks Burning Bridges

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
Yesterday she thanked me
For oilin’ that front door
This mornin’ 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 doin’, can’t be undone
And I’m always hopin’ someday
I’m gonna stop this runnin’ ’round

But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes down

[Verse 2]
Last night we talked of old times
Families and 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 through the flames I see her
Standin’ on the other side

[Chorus]
Burning bridges, one by one
What I’m doin’, can’t be undone
And I’m always hopin’ someday
I’m gonna stop this runnin’ ’round

But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes down

[Verse 3]
Like ashes on the water
I drift away in sorrow
Knowing that the day
My lesson’s finally learned

I’ll be standin’ at a river
Starin’ out across tomorrow
And the bridge I need to get there
Will be a bridge that I have burned

[Chorus]
Burning bridges, one by one
What I’m doin’, can’t be undone
And I’m always hopin’ someday
I’m gonna stop this runnin’ ’round

But every time the chance comes up
Another bridge goes down

Another bridge goes down
