Cover art for Bridges lyrics by Tracy Chapman

However much we cut off our past, one day it will all come back, this has a similar meaning to Meat Loaf's 'Objects in the rearview mirror may appear closer than they are'.

I love Tracy Chapman, and her debut album (Tracy Chapman) is my favourite album of all time.

I LOVE this song but unfortunately I only have Crossroads, the album this song is on, on a poppy old Vinyl.
