Brooks Garth Burning Bridges lyrics

(Stephanie C. Brown/Garth Brooks)

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 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
Whe 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

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

CHORUS

Another bridge goes down
