Braw Burn the Bridges Lyrics by Tannahill Weavers

Cullen Bay

[Verse 1]
Bide a wee ye bonnie hours o' sweet yestreen
Haud awa' the thocht that e'er I will forget
Lang the wimplin' wey unrowes afore my een?
And the mindin' will be sweeter yet
[Chorus]
Aye, the road was haudin'
Frae the lass that I will aye remember
Braw burn the bridges far behind me in the rain
The leaves were changin'
Tae the colours o' the glowing embers
My heart lay waiting for the spring tae come again
[Verse 2]
Hae we rin the gless or daur we dream of mair
While as surely as the river meets the sea?
When the eastlin's wind has blawn the forest bare
Will the pertin' a' the wider be?
[Chorus]
Aye, the road was haudin'
Frae the lass that I will aye remember
Braw burn the bridges far behind me in the rain
The leaves were changin'
Tae the colours o' the glowing ember
My heart lay waiting for the spring tae come again
[Verse 3]
Could I leeze me on your lousome face again
Gin the traivel's turn should bring me tae your side
Fain would I nae langer steek my heart wi' pain
Or lay curse upon the ocean wide
[Chorus]
Aye, the road was haudin'
Frae the lass that I will aye remember
Braw burn the bridges far behind me in the rain
The leaves were changin'
Tae the colours o' the glowing ember
My heart lay waiting for the spring tae come—
Aye, the road was haudin'
Frae the lass that I will aye remember
Braw burn the bridges far behind me in the rain
The leaves were changin'
Tae the colours o' the glowing ember
My heart lay waiting for the spring tae come again
