Burning Bridges (Cover)
Paul Lennon
This tune is one of my top ten favorites of all time.
It’s originally performed by The Mike Curb Congrigataion and used as a music track for the movie “Kelly’s Heroes” starring Clint Eastwood, Telly Salavas, Caroll O’Conner, Don Rickles, Donald Sutherland, Gavin McCloud, and a bunch more .
ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
I dedicate this to my friends on AT.
You know who you are. No need to name you.
You know I adore you and I miss you. Very MUCH!
As some of you might already know, we’re fighting the cancer here.
My woman has breast cancer, skin cancer, and a whole lot more.
She’s a kick ass kind of bitch though, so , She has it under control.
She is terminally ill, but that’s just a medical characterisation.
Nothing more.
We’re much tougher than that. We’re American - you know.
The song carries a simple message.
Friends all tried to warn me
But I held my head up high
All the time 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
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 the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore
Joey tried to help me find a job
A while ago
When I finally got it I didn’t want to go
The party Mary gave for me
When I just walked 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 the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore
Years have passed and I keep thinking
What a fool I’ve been
I look back into the past and
Think of way back then
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 the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore
Burning bridges lost forevermore
I miss you all.
Much Love to you……..
