Another Bridge to Burn
Bridges of Love: Embracing Change and Moving On
Lyrics
I don't suppose I'll ever love him
I don't expect to love him in the same way I love you.
Quite the way that I love you
When he appears in my dreams, it doesn't leave me feeling sad.
But when he slips into my dreams
We may lack commonality, but we compensate with care.
I don't wake up feeling blue
Discovering a new connection, realizing it's time to move on.
What we don't have in common
Addressing differences with understanding and empathy.
We make up for in concern
Announcing a new relationship as a replacement for the old one.
I just found another match
Finding a new partner to replace the former love interest.
You're another bridge, it's time to burn
Declaring the end of the connection, expressing the need to move forward.
Through the years I've cried a river
Reflecting on the emotional pain endured over time.
One tear drop at a time
Describing a gradual accumulation of tears and sorrow.
I kept that old bridge standing strong
Maintaining hope for a reunion, keeping the emotional bridge intact.
Just in case you changed your mind
Preserving the emotional connection in case the other person changes their mind.
I can't live on dreams forever
Acknowledging the need to face reality rather than relying solely on dreams.
At least reality returns
Realizing the importance of living in the present moment.
With his hand in mine, we'll light the flames
Committing to a new relationship and letting go of the past.
You're another bridge, it's time to burn
Reiterating the decision to move on from the old emotional connection.
Oh I never will forget you
Expressing the lasting impact of the previous relationship.
Or a single memory
Treasuring the memories of the past relationship.
But he's here now, and you're gone
Recognizing the absence of the former partner and the new loneliness.
And you make such lonely memories
Creating lonely memories with the new partner's absence.
I don't know how to touch him right
Expressing uncertainty about the physical aspect of the new relationship.
But I know I want to learn
Expressing the desire to learn and improve the new relationship.
I just found another match
Finding a new connection to replace the old one.
You're another bridge, it's time to burn
Reaffirming the decision to move on from the previous relationship.
Through the years I've cried a river
Reflecting on the emotional pain endured over time (repeated).
One tear drop at a time
Describing a gradual accumulation of tears and sorrow (repeated).
I kept that old bridge standing strong
Maintaining hope for a reunion, keeping the emotional bridge intact (repeated).
Just in case you changed your mind
Preserving the emotional connection in case the other person changes their mind (repeated).
I can't live on dreams forever
Acknowledging the need to face reality rather than relying solely on dreams (repeated).
At least reality returns
Realizing the importance of living in the present moment (repeated).
With his hand in mine, we'll light the flames
Committing to a new relationship and letting go of the past (repeated).
You're another bridge, it's time to burn
Reiterating the decision to move on from the old emotional connection (repeated).
