She Burned Her Bridges Down

One night she whispered, she spilled it in the dark I never saw it comin', but it blew right through my heart It sounded like an echo, she said it once before Blow a kiss on leavin', and kindly close the door Well, the face you carry is the one that people see There's another one behind it, and she turned that one on me She said it with her eyes closed, she wasn't foolin' around The night she burned her bridges down Your friends'll tell you, "There are things you should leave alone" And the truth is somethin' different when it cuts right to the bone Magic and miracles, torch the forest to save the trees Everybody suffers and they fall to their knees But the way she looked at me, like she was lookin' for a clue As if I could read the future, but she already knew She blew away the darkness, never to be found The night she burned her bridges down She burned her bridges down Well, the world keeps spinnin' around Disappeared without a sound She wasn't foolin' around The night she burned her bridges down She burned her bridges down There's a weight you carry, in a world beyond time Hide it away and go lookin' for a sign Is there somebody out there who can meet you half way? Too many questions, you might drive them away Oh, enemies and lovers are bound to come and go So you wait for revelation, 'cause you just don't ever know And the world grew so much bigger, and it kept spinnin' around The night she burned her bridges down She burned her bridges down Well, the world keeps spinnin' around You can feel it movin' underground She disappeared without a sound The night she burned her bridges down La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la Well, the world keeps spinnin' around The night she burned her bridges down She burned her bridges down
