Intro: Friends all tried to warn me but I held my head up high All them times they told me, but I only passed them by They all tried to tell me but I guess I didn't care I turned my back and left them standing there All the burning bridges that have fallen after me All the lonely feelings and the burning memories Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door Burning bridges lost forever more Joey tried to help me find a job awhile ago When I finally got it, I didn't want to go What is there in keep for me when I just walk away? Now there's nothing left for me to say, All the burning bridges that have fallen after me. All the lonely feelings and the burning memories Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door Burning bridges lost forever more Years have passed and I keep thinking what a fool I've been When I look back into the past and think of way back when I know that I lost everything I thought that I could win I guess I should have listened to my friends. All the burning bridges that have fallen after me. All the lonely feelings and the burning memories Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door Burning bridges lost forever more Burning bridges lost forever more
