lyrics

Burning Bridges

Lost and losing I took to cruising Up the Alaska Highway
Found me a town and a girl who said she’d love me
If I promised I’d stay
Months flew on by as I worked that grader
Dreaming of a life I could find
Waves of blue and white sandy beaches,
Happy hour 'til closing time

A crooked frame never hangs straight
Some stains you can't wash away
A rolling stone never reaches the top
I can't quit these roaming blues,


A year had rolled on, things were getting crazy, my gal was in a
motherly way
But In deep my heart crept that old familiar darkness
I knew I’d be going to stray
One dark cold night working the graveyard
I stood on that very same road
Flagged down a semi climbed up on in
I left town and never looked back

This hole in my heart never gonna heal,
If you see me you best stay away
The pain I feel I keep giving back
I don't know any other way

(Still)Lost and losing somewhere down south
Hurt a man bad for something he said
Now I'm a running scared from the law
Burning bridges along the way

Carl Lefebvre and Victor Nesrallah
