TOO MANY BRIDGES TO CROSS OVER

|
Be close to me but please don't ever love me
|
Don't let your feelings carry you that far
|
I'll hold you in my arms buy you clothes and pretty charms
|
And I'll give you everything except my love
|
Because there's too many bridges to cross over
|
Too many places I ain't been
|
Yeah there's too many fields of tempting clover
|
Like an eagle I'm a prisoner of the wind
|
Well traveling was the nickname of my papa
|
And mama said he died cause he slowed down
|
Keep in mine these things I'm saying
|
Cause I ain't got the time to staying
|
Won't be long until my shoes touch distant ground
|
Because there's too many bridges...
