You set me back a month dear
As cleanly as you could
With California burning
My heart is in the woods

If you think that all the waiting
Has done me any good
Well California's burning
and my heart is in the woods

What else can I say?
I think about you every day
What else can I do?
I'm still in love with you

I'll leave you to the city
And your struggles with the law
when Californias fine, dear
It might be time to call

What else can I say?
I think about you every day
What else can I do?
I'm still in love with you

What else can I say?
What else can I do?

California's Burning

I had three cigarettes last night
Sitting in the smokers lounge
Waiting on my connecting flight
You may be far, but you’re never far from my mind
Do you think about me ever?

John says it gets a little easier
Not holding out hope for the rest of the year though
Doing dishes to the static on the radio
Whos gonna want me when I’m this alone

I think songs about love
Are really songs about death
I never had an ex I didn’t try to bargain with
It’s strange  how the space has the shape of your face
But I’m still putting flowers 
In your favorite vase

I have these dreams where your happy to see me
I have these dreams where you can’t meet my eye
I can live with the fever
I can power through fall
But I can’t get the best of denial

I think songs about love
Are really songs about hope
Songs about innocence
Songs about smoke
It might take to the new year to feel a measure of grace
But I’m still putting flowers in your favorite vase
I’m still putting flowers in your favorite vase
