JESSIE JAMES LYRICS - Burnin' Bridges

"Burnin' Bridges"



Spotlights have a funny glow

They can keep you warm, but they can make you go crazy

Always got to be the show

So you never know what it's like bein' in the crowd

Lately I'm hearing people say you're a runaway

And somebody's got to bring you back to reality

Help you see the things

That you might have been lookin' past



I ain't burnin' bridges

I'm tryin' to mend them

I apologize

If I ever hurt your feelings

Got my own convictions n I got to live them

I ain't burnin' bridges

That ain't my intention



Ain't got nothin' to hide

Yeah I'm good with God, my soul's naked like water

You n I wouldn't want to see

The girl I'd be, if I wouldn't have turned you down

You showed me so many things

But the best would be never ever rolled over

Stand up for what I believe

And eventually everyone will come back around



I ain't bunin' bridges

I'm tryin' to mend them

I apologize

If I ever hurt your feelings

Got my own convictions n I got to live them

I ain't burnin' bridges

That ain't my intention



[Outro]

Always three sides to every story

There's yours and theirs mine

But we've been ignorin'

The truth it hides

Behind a clear disguise



Oh... I ain't bunin' bridges

I'm tryin' to mend them

I apologize

If I ever hurt your feelings

Got my own convictions n I got to live them

I ain't burnin' bridges

That ain't my intention
