Survivor - Burning Bridges lyrics

rate me

I can feel a strong desire,

A distant fire burning through the past

Deep inside my heart is yearning,

A bridge is burning

There's just no turning back

After all the hell I've tasted,

Years I've wasted,

Love that slipped away

Suddenly a vision shook me,

I see the fool I'd become content to play

Over one-way streets in blindin' heat

I carry this torch alone

I ask for no directions home

*You can call out my name but I won't return

I'm a fugitive of love and this heart's been burned

Burnin' bridges behind me

You can follow me down but it's plain to see

I'm a victim of the burn and it's third degree

Setting bridges on fire*

I will go to any length

To find the strength

To face the night alone

Standing on the edge of time,

I cross the line

My heart becomes my own

Gonna tell you why you're a fool

To try to cross a burning bridge

It's a long hard fall from the top of the ridge

( * Repeat)
