BURNING BRIDGES
Writer Walter Scott
Found some letters you wrote me this morning They told of the love we once knew Now they're gone I burned them to ashes Don't want nothing to remind me of you Burning bridges behind me It's too late to turn back now Burning bridges behind me All I want is to forget you somehow Sold the house we once planned together Said goodbye to the folks we once knew Then I moved to a far away city Tried so hard to forget about you Burning bridges behind me It's too late to turn back now Burning bridges behind me All I want is to forget you somehow
