Too Many Bridges To Cross Over

(Dallas Frazier)



Be close to me but please don't ever love me

Don't let your feelings carry you that far

I'll hold you in my arms buy you clothes and pretty charms

And I'll give you everything except my love.



Because there's too many bridges to cross over

Too many places I ain't been

Yeah there's too many fields of tempting clover

Like an eagle I'm a prisoner of the wind.

Well traveling was the nickname of my papa

And mama said he died cause he slowed down

Keep in mine these things I'm saying

Cause I ain't got the time to staying

Won't be long until my shoes touch distant ground.



Because there's too many bridges to cross over

Too many places I ain't been

Yeah there's too many fields of tempting clover

Like an eagle I'm a prisoner of the wind...
