Don T Burn The Bridge lyrics

I am a man who travelled everywhere
Holding mirages made of hair
Mansions of silver, women of gold
Well, all I had was the tale I told

I`ve been a wanderer, I can let go
But you would do better to stay
Don`t burn the bridge
That brought you over
Or you`ll be travelling all your days

I had no family, I had no real friends
I had a lover who more then just pretends
She played a mind game
I played it too
When you`re in love, those`re the things you do

I`ve been a loser, I`ve won the game
I`ve had power, fortune, and fame
Don`t burn the bridge that brought you over
For you`re a poor man just the same

Poor man
Poor man
Yes, I`ll admit I`ve burned my bridges one and all
That I have turned my back on some who tried to see me fall
And then you came and built a bridge where once there was a wall in my life

I can cross over, live on the other side
I was a rover, until I met my bride
She has the magic, I have the dreams
With her, my life is really all it seems

There`s no illusion, this is for real
And I`m so satisfied, deep within
You are the bridge that brought me over
And you are everywhere I`ve ever been

Your man
I`m your man
Yes, I`ll admit I`ve burned my bridges one and all
That I have turned my back on some who tried to see me fall
And then you came to build a bridge where once there was a wall
Came and built a bridge where there was a wall
Came and built a bridge where there was a wall
In my life
In my life
