about

an elderly wanderer looks back on a lost love

lyrics

it's a warm winter evening
in south california
south california
where the pretty folk play
on white sandy beaches
by sparkling blue water
and big fancy houses
where they shoo me away

these worn out old shoes
make a road hard to travel
it 's been a hard road to travel
from my wintery home
where the frozen rain whispers
"there's no need to stay here
there's nothin' to hold you
all your reasons are gone"

she started a fire
that no longer burns
when a heart flies that far away
it don't ever return
we're just two winding roads
that no longer meet
she started a fire
and i'm still feelin' the heat

i've got to keep movin'
i'm like a man with secret
a man with a secret that he don’t want to say
just another sad tale
about a heart that's fully broken
and a billion bright stars
will not wish that away

she started a fire
that no longer burns
when a heart flies that far away
it don't ever return
we're just two winding roads
that no longer meet
she started a fire
and i'm still feelin' the heat

i'm a lonely old fool
but i used to be a young one
i used to be so young
man, i knew everything
but time is for learning
and, lord, i've learned me a lifetime
and a life without love
it don’t mean a thing

she started a fire
that no longer burns
when a heart flies that far away
it don't ever return
we're just two winding roads
that no longer meet
she started a fire
and i'm still feelin' the heat
