Burn That Bridge

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm not saying I'm scared of you

But your love is something new

When I hold you we're swaying in the wind

Of all the bridges I've ever crossed

High and lonesome and wild and lost

I feel this time I'll take it to the end

We don't care what the people may say

If there's a price it's the price we'll pay

[Chorus:]

And we'll burn that bridge when we come to it

Burn that bridge when we come to it

Burn that bridge when we come to it

Burn it down

Burn it down

We've both done our share of runnin' around

Now we know enough to know the kind of love

we've found

It's the real thing and we've got to see it through

I'm a singer and a sailor on a midnight sea

Oh captain come and take me on your fantasy

If we're crazy that ain't nothin' new

'Cause we don't care what the people may say

If there's a price it's the price we'll pay and

[Chorus]

Who knows how it started

Who knows it's ends

The point of no return is waiting

just around the bend

[Chorus]
