38 Special Lyrics: Burning Bridges Lyrics

38 Special - Burning Bridges

You haven't changed much

From the last time I saw you

You look so new to these old eyes

So much water's gone over the bridge

That burned between you and I

I've avoided nostalgia ignored the sentimental

Tried to cut myself off from much of the past

All that macho and all that bravado

Makes me wanna laugh makes me wanna laugh

We do what it takes to keep on pushin'

We do what it takes to survive

But seeing you now here at this moment

Don't it make you wonder

Chorus I:

Why'd we wanna burn those bridges

Why'd we wanna light such a flame

Ain't no way to stay warm at the fire

Of burning bridges burning bridges

I've made some adjustments

Worked out some problems

Nearly drove myself crazy with things I can't change

But all that's history little darlin'

And it's good to see you smile

Just good to see you smile again

You got what it takes to keep on pushin'

You got what it takes to survive

But seeing you now here at this moment

Don't it make me wonder

Chorus II:

Why'd we wanna burn those bridges

Why'd we wanna light such a flame

Ain't no way to stay warm at the fire

Of burning bridges

Why'd we wanna cry such a river

Why'd we wanna sswim that distant shores

There ain't nothing to see in the light

Of burning bridges

I'm thinkin' that we could start over

But rebuilding bridges takes time

Time to heal time to forgive

Let live and forget

You haven't changed much from the last time I saw you

You look so new to these old eyes

So much water's gone over the bridge so much water

Chorus II:

Burning bridges burning bridges burning bridges
