Lyric discussion by glenman 

Great song, love the lyrics and the background. One question - where is the 'burning bridge'?

@glenman It's idiomatic. A burned bridge refers to a destroyed relationship. I'm guessing that in this case, so much time had passed that the relationship was in danger, but it was burning, not burned, as in, still salvageable.

@glenman it's just a good rhyme for "Anchorage", and a great image to describe a relationship that might have had a little argument or something when they broke up. Good songwriters like words or phrases that excite you and leave you open to speculation. Michelle doesn't know what it means any more than us!
