Don't Burn Your Bridges Behind You
I've always believed that no one could live in this world alone
You always need someone to talk to
And sometimes, you need someone to lean on or lend a helping hand
Feelings are often hurt, but if you realize you've hurt someone
Think, what does it cost to say I'm sorry or forgive me?
One day you might need a favor from that same person again, and it won't be there
So never take a friend or anyone for granted
And remember what my mom always told me
Don't you burn your bridges behind you
You might wanna turn and come back again
The bridge you burn today, you may need it again for tomorrow
Might bring sorrow
Oh (don't you burn)
You hear me, boy
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Ooh, you hear me, boy
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hmm-mm, cast aside your greed and be aware
All the friends you see may be the ones you have
That's the thing today that we all, all we need for yesterday
Will come back again
Oh (don't you burn)
Ooh, hear me, boy
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Get it in your mind
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Ooh, ooh, don't deprive a friend of what's belongs to him
You might wanna turn and confide in him
The one you hurt today, you may need again
And he'll be the one to lend a helping hand
Oh (don't you burn)
Ooh, hear me, boy
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Get it in your mind
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Woo, don't you burn your bridges behind you
You might wanna turn and come back again
The bridge you burn today, you may need again for tomorrow
Might bring sorrow
Oh (don't you burn)
Ooh, hear me, boy
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Get it in your mind
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Ooh, ooh (don't you burn)
Don't you bridges behind you (don't you burn your bridges down)
You might wanna turn
(Don't you burn)
Don't you burn your bridges behind you (don't you burn your bridges down)
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Get it in your mind
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
You always need someone to talk to
And sometimes, you need someone to lean on or lend a helping hand
Feelings are often hurt, but if you realize you've hurt someone

Don't you bridges behind you (don't you burn your bridges down)
You might wanna turn
(Don't you burn)
Don't you burn your bridges behind you (don't you burn your bridges down)
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
Hear me talking to you
(Don't you burn)
Get it in your mind
(Don't you burn your bridges down)
