Homefires - Neil Young

Im not the same man

I was a while ago

Ive learned some new things,

I hope that it shows.

Im free to give my love,

But youre not the one Im thinking of,

So for me the wheels are turning

Got to keep the homefires burning.

Ill walk these borders

In search of a line,

Between young lovers

Who live separate lives.

How long can this go on?

I can hear another song,

Late at night when Ive been drinking

Substitute comes at me winking.

How long can this go on?

I can hear another song,

Late at night when Ive been drinking

Substitute comes at me winking.

Im not the same man

I was a while ago

Ive learned some new things,

I hope that it shows.

Im free to give my love,

But youre not the one Im thinking of.
