The Bridges You Burn

Too late to change my mind about it
just let the meter keep tickin' away
I'm on a taxi to the station, gotta take the early morning train
check my past in the rear-view mirror
don't recognize the face I see
trying to forget your eyes, this hurt inside
oh, it's the only thing I feel

Well, everything that you learn, you learn from love
and every stone that you turn, you turn for love
every bridge that you burn will find you alone...
Don't look back on the bridges you burn.

I'm not the one to pull any punches
always done the best I could
just to walk a straight line, to play in time and to sing my song in tune
but sometimes it's hard to hold on to
all the promises and all the dreams
to go against the grain and stand the strain
now, I still believe

Well, everything that you learn, you learn from love
and every stone that you turn, you turn for love
every bridge that you burn will find you alone...
Don't look back on the bridges you burn.

This one's for the words unspoken
for the songs just left unsung
for the sins left unforgiven, for the love made on the run
I'll sing and toast with free spirits
and smash my glass to make a scene
to all the so-called friends who tried to change me
I say, I'll never stop to dream

Well, everything that you learn, you learn from love
and every stone that you turn, you turn for love
everything that you learn, you learn from love
yeah, every stone that you turn, you turn for love
every bridge that you burn will find you alone...
Now don't look back on the bridges you burn.
