You brave, brave girl
You really made the jump this time
No one had thought you’d have it in you
But you showed them all
Bridges are burning
Where can you run to now
Bridges are burning
To live is to love
You’re really out in the cold now
They didn’t see this coming
It’s all up to you from here
You’re on your own this time
Bridges are burning
Where can you run to now
Bridges are burning
To live is to love
You must feel lonely now
In these uncharted waters
There is no other way but your own
No one can tell you how
Bridges are burning
Where can you run to now
Bridges are burning
To live is to love
