Burning Bridges Between Me And Thee

Burning bridges between thee and me

Up until now, I thought we were soul mates

Riding through this storm, I have come to believe it may or may not be so

No one would have conceived the idea that one day

I would be burning bridges between thee and me

Not as long as there are stars still dangling in the night sky

God, it's so hard to say goodbye to you

 

Bridges fall down when the structure becomes weak

Riding through this storm I have to believe this is so true

I was as strong as I could be, but it's like a mighty ship crashed into me

Drowning at sea, lost without a life raft, I find myself floating away

God, it's so hard to say goodbye to you

Enlightened am I

Sailing no more

 

Burning bridges between thee and me

Embers of memories now dying

The ashes of my inner being, destroyed by the fire

Weep not for me, my love

Every now & then, I try to see the rays of a lighthouse, to no avail

Enlightened am I, sailing

No more

 

The heart knows not how to quench out the fire as it sears

Having to struggle for dear life, fighting the current in a sea of regrets

Expel me not from eternity with thee, I pray thee as I drift out to sea

Enlightened am I, sailing no more

 

As I am burning bridges between thee and me

No one to come to my rescue, no one to save me as I go under

Drowning in my own bittersweet tears

 

My darling,

Enlightened am I, sailing no more
