Lyrics Old Bridges Burn Slow - Billy Joe Royal

Old Bridges Burn Slow

Here we go round again
Masquerading as long lost friends
Cause a memory never dies it kinda fades into a lie and what do ya know?
Still waters run deep
Old bridges burn slow
Still waters run deep, now, baby
Old bridges burn slow
Let’s chalk it all up to our youth
That’s one way to hide from the truth
I never asks you for a thing and if I had you would have told me no
Still waters run deep
Old bridges burn slow
Still waters run deep, now, baby
Old bridges burn slow
But how many years did I chase after you?
All my mind would allow
But now I can’t break off the past and even if I knew how
Ah, I wouldn’t tell it to ya, baby
So why don’t we call it a day?
I got nothing else left to say
Cause ea dream we both dreamt was just a last ditch attempt to stop the flow
Still waters run deep
Old bridges burn slow
Still waters run deep, now, baby
Old bridges burn slow
Mmm
Don’t ya know they burn slow?
In a way I know and I know
Don’t ya know they burn slow?
Still waters run deep
Old bridges burn slow
Ahh, ha, how they burn
Don’t ya know they burn slow?
Still waters run deep
Old bridges burn slow
