BURNING BRIDGES

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

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

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

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
