[Verse 1:] Spotlights have a funny glow They can keep you warm But they can make you go crazy Always got to be the show So you never know What it's like being in the crowd Lately I'm hearing people Say you're a runaway And somebody's got to bring you Back to reality Help you see the things That you might have been lookin' past [Chorus:] I ain't burnin' bridges I'm tryin' to mend them I apologize If I ever hurt your feelings Got my own convictions And I got to live them I ain't burnin' bridges That ain't my intention [Verse 2:] Ain't got nothin' to hide Yeah I'm good with God My soul's naked like water You and I wouldn't want to see The girl I'd be If I wouldn't have turned you down You showed me so many things But the best would be Never ever rolled over Stand up for what I believe And eventually everyone Will come back around [Repeat Chorus:] [Bridge:] Always three sides to every story There's yours And there's mine But we've been ignorin' the truth It hides Behind a clear disguise [Chorus:] Oh I ain't burnin' bridges I'm tryin' to mend them I apologize If I ever hurt your feelings Got my own convictions And I got to live them I ain't burnin' bridges That ain't my intention
