Burning Bridges
I keep bruning bridges the closer I get to the other sideI set a fire and watch the flames rise
the time I take to gather the stones and mix the cement
lay out my plan and gather my friends and music in the band stand
forge the steel and bend and mold the frame
I know its comeing that fire again it's all the same
I keep bruning bridges and I never make it to the other side
am always ready to cross and I can stand on what I've built so far
I can see it in my mind and I know that it is there on the other side
most of the time I'm half way there and I can see what is waiting for me
the love and warmth will be mines to keep
but I keep bruning bridges right under my feet
right out of nowhere the flames inginite and the fires starts
to burn out of control and I can not for the life of me understand why
am destroying all that I want to hold and why love is so hard for me to keep
the structure is grand and the work will rival any man's heart
it's solid and strong and well plan the iron and steel melting into one
rust resistance and can hold any weight from a frieght car train to milliions of cars and trucks plus there cargo that it will take
but I keep bruning bridges after all the work I put in
my heart my soul and want to hold but I keep bruning bridges
my heart is worn and torn through the fire to forge on is burning bright blue am crying am trying but am not thu tomorrow I'll start anew to cross this bridge with you
