Another Bridge to Burn
Waylon Jennings · Destiny's Child [Bear Family] [1999]
(Harlan Howard)
I've had to burn most every bridge I've crossed
It seems like everything I've loved I'd lost
When I met you I've thought my luck had turned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
So, I'll soon light the fire and move on
Oh, I've already been here much too long
I'm so hurt and you're so unconcerned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
Sometimes one must love enough for two
And that's the way it's been with me and you
I'll see your face no matter where I'll turn
But that will be another bridge to burn.
So, I'll soon light the fire and move on
Oh, I've already been here much too long
I'm so hurt and you're so unconcerned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
Our love's just another bridge to burn...
I've had to burn most every bridge I've crossed
It seems like everything I've loved I'd lost
When I met you I've thought my luck had turned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
So, I'll soon light the fire and move on
Oh, I've already been here much too long
I'm so hurt and you're so unconcerned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
Sometimes one must love enough for two
And that's the way it's been with me and you
I'll see your face no matter where I'll turn
But that will be another bridge to burn.
So, I'll soon light the fire and move on
Oh, I've already been here much too long
I'm so hurt and you're so unconcerned
But our love's just another bridge to burn.
Our love's just another bridge to burn...
