She's back real late yet she don't seem to care She hangs around outside in late night air Burning tears upon a smiling face And she's caught in the fires of spring The ice of loneliness you've known so long For good or not seems to have been and gone Your Phoenix flies you high on crazy wings And you're caught in the fires of spring When all that you do has faded from view and I tell you it don't mean a thing oh you're burned and I'm blind and you're caught in the fires of spring You've been before but never been so fast Your only hope is that it's gonna last You know the pain and yet you love it's sting And you're caught in the fires of spring
