Burning Bridges

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)
