Lyrics

Baby, baby I really need a change
And I'm praying that you feel the same way too
The mirror on the bathroom wall doesn't tell me lies
I see heavy eyes just like I see in you
We leave for work each day before the sun is up
And don't come home til after it has gone
It seems existing is the way that we now live
But it's not the way I want to carry to on

So honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one
Let's quit our jobs, the daily grind
Let's clear our house, let's clear our minds
Let's head away to somewhere new
Let's find the time for me and you
Yes, honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one

Baby, baby, I look at all we own
And I sometimes wonder if it's all too much
The latest phones, trendy clothes, the modern home
If it's things that count then surely life is good
So why the emptiness, the hollow in my heart
The certainty that something's not quite right
It seems that all we have are castles made of sand
And we're sinking with them on a rising tide

So honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one
Let's quit our jobs, the daily grind
Let's clear our house, let's clear our minds
Let's head away to somewhere new
Let's find the time for me and you
Yes, honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one

Yes, honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one

So honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one
Let's quit our jobs, the daily grind
Let's clear our house, let's clear our minds
Let's head away to somewhere new
Let's find the time for me and you
Yes, honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one
Yes, honey, honey, let's be strong
Let's burn our bridges one by one
