[Verse 1:]
Friends all tried to warn me
But I held my head up high
All the times they warned 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
[Chorus:]
All those burning bridges that have fallen after me
All the lonely feelings and a burning memory
Every one 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
A party you never gave for me
When I just walked away
Now there's nothing left for me to say
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
Years have passed
And I keep thinking what a fool I've been
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
[Repeat Chorus:]
