All My Bridges Burning

Lyrics: Robert Hunter
Music: Cesar Rosas

A new Robert Hunter lyric, from Los Lobos's album "Tin Can Trust"

When we were young
Taking time to believe
If only to survive
What you gotta believe

If only to survive
Survive in this world
In this crazy life
Gotta give it a whirl

All my bridges burning
Almost burning down
All my bridges burning
Burning to the ground
It's burning down
Burning down

Trying hard to believe
There's something more than me
Something outside myself
That wants me to be free

Set my bridges all aflame
So I could not return
Gotta walk on straight ahead
To learn what I need to learn

All my bridges burning
Almost burning down
All my bridges burning
Burning to the ground
It's burning down
Burning down
Burning down

Going where I belong
I hope there's time for love
Don't care what time it is
It's just never enough

Just making music
Keep my feet on the ground
Couldn't live without it
Helps me to stick around

All my bridges burning
Almost burning down
All my bridges burning
Burning to the ground

All my bridges burning
Almost burning down
All my bridges burning
Burning to the ground
It's burning down
Burning down
