38 Special - Burning Bridges lyrics

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
