The Woodshedders - Wildfire Lyrics

california breathed the sun
woke up and found someone
balanced on her golden legs
but i can't find her anywhere

she and me we were the same
we leapt right into the flame
forever or never at all
knowing its all ephemeral

the cold won't disappear

wildfire let me in
from this lonely wandering
i can't tell you where i've been
wildfire let me in

she got lost rambling down
the loving cup she passed around
until all the banks we slept upon
fell into the waterfall

but on my face she left a brand
and this line upon my hand
and this road i've been treading down
and all the stars that wheel around

the compass doesn't know

wildfire let me in
from this lonely wandering
i can't tell you where i've been
wildfire let me in

if california lost her sun
could never find her darling one
no more gold upon her face
just throw me into outer space

for all the world's been make believe
a charlatan's fantasy
nothing on the highway sign
i'm straggling down a line

wildfire let me in
from this lonely wandering
i can't tell you where i've been
wildfire let me in
wildfire let me in
from this lonely wandering
i don't believe in sin
