With just my love, I kept you standing
Till you were ready for life's flight, with happy landings
The ways of life I taught you
All you needed I brought you
And when you fell I caught you
I made you strong
Now you're leaving, I have no one
Don't burn the bridge that took you across
Don't walk away and leave me lost
Don't burn the bridge
Don't burn the bridge
ย
You were my weakness, I was your strength
You took my love to build all of your confidence
You usะตd me, then betrayะตd me
But there's been less you've paid me
I'm lost but you won't save me
So deep I hurt, you bet
Don't drop me where I picked you up
(Don't burn the bridge that took you across)
(No no, baby, don't walk away and leave me lost)
(No no, baby, don't burn the bridge) don't burn the bridge
(Don't burn the bridge) don't burn the bridge
ย
Oh, baby, baby, mhm-mhm
Don't burn it, baby, baby
Now I can't make it, I need your help
Don't leave me here to save myself
Don't burn it, baby, mhm
Oh, don't burn it, baby, mhm
ย
You lit the match that set my dreams on fire
You left me with tears to dry 'round my desires
My world's without a bout
With pain too big to stop them
So soon I've been forgotten, from joy to pain
There's been enough to make amends
(Don't burn the bridge that took you across)
(No no, baby, don't walk away and leave me lost)
(No no, baby, don't burn the bridge) don't burn the bridge
(That took you across) don't burn the bridge
(No no, baby, don't walk away and leave me lost)
(No no, baby, don't...) don't burn the bridge, no
