David Crosby - Voyage [Box Set] (2006) by David Crosby (보컬) on maniadb.com

I though I met a man who said he knew a man
Who knew what was going on
I was mistaken, only another stranger that I knew

And I thought that I'd found the light
To guide me through my nights and all my darkness
I was mistaken, it was only reflections of a shadow that I saw

And I thought I've seen someone who seemed at last
To know the truth
I was mistaken, only a child laughing in the sun

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh in the sun

Everybody's sayin' music is love
Everybody'sayin' it's, you know it is
Every one yes every one
Everybody's sayin' music, music is love
Everybody's sayin' that music is love
Everybody's sayin' it's love

Everybody's sayin' that music is love, everybody's sayin' it's love
Everybody's sayin' that music is love, everybody's sayin' it's love
Everybody's sayin' that music is love, everybody's sayin' it's love
Everybody's sayin' that music is love, everybody's sayin' it's love
Everybody's sayin' that music is love
Everybody's sayin' it's love

Put on your colors and run come see
Everybody's sayin' that music's for free
Take off your clothes and lie in the sun
Everybody's sayin' that music's for fun

I wonder who they are
The men who really run this land
And I wonder why they run it
With such a thoughtless hand.
Tell me what are their names,
And on what street do they live?
I'd like to ride right over
This afternoon and give
Them a piece of my mind
About peace for mankind
Peace is not
An awful lot
To ask.

by David Crosby

Four of us were having dinner
And I threw down the paper with a curse
And my wife said, Complaining doesn't get it
You got to do something or you can bet it
Will get worse.

And my friend said, You've been watching
TV too much: and all that hippie hopefulness
Is just a crutch.
But if thinkin' that way helps you
To make it through the night
Then who am I to say what's wrong and right.

But I think, we're passing
Through here kind of fast
Did you think these tracks
In the dust would last.

So you think we should just sit here
And have another glass of wine
While the world goes to hell, which you know damn well
It's going to do just down the line.
And his lady said, I don't know
how can you be so sure, I mean
Some things seem to get better

You know the hero still saves the
Damsel in distress, the
Villain doesn't get her
And I said, where have you been living
I mean they're selling death in the streets.
Cheap.
And the lying politicians are rolling
in the profits they reap.
And he said, He's right honey
But I think it's always been that way.
And he smiled kind of patiently,
and I knew he was going to say:

I think, we're passing
Through here kind of fast
Did you think these tracks
In the dust would last.

I think, we're passing
Through here kind of fast
Did you think these tracks
In the dust would last.

I think, we're passing
Through here kind of fast

It was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight

The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me

And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered
What was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew

Shadow and shape
Mix together at dawn
But by the time you catch them
Simplicity's gone

So we sort through the pieces
My friends and I
Searching through the darkness
To find the breaks in the sky

And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered
What was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew

And we wonder, yes, we wonder
How do you make sense of this
When the hero kills the maiden
With his kiss, with his kiss

Well, it was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight

The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
Were that simple for me

He met her in a french cafe
She slipped in sideways like a cat
Sidelong glances, what a wary little stray&127;
She sticks in his mind like that
Saying 'avez vous un alumette'
With her lips wrapped around a cigarette
Yvette in English saying please have this
Little bit of instant bliss.
He's struggling with a foreign tongue
Reaching for words and drawing blanks
A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb
In a bistro on the left bank
If I was a painter Picasso said
I'd paint this girl from toe to head
Yvette in English, saying please have this
Little bit of instant bliss
Burgundy nocturne tips and spills
They move along nicely in the spreading stain
New chills, new thrills
For the old uphill battle
How did he wind up here again
Walking and talking touched and scared
Uninsulated wires bare
Yvette in English saying 'please have this
Little bit of instant bliss
What blew her like a leaf his way
Up in the air and down to earth
First she flusters, then she frays
So quick to question her own worth
Her cigarette burns her finger tips
It falls like fireworks, she curses it
Sweetly in English she says 'please have this
Little bit of instant bliss
He sees her turn and walk away
Skittering like a cat on a stone
Her high heels clicking, what a wary little stray
She leaves him by the Seine alone.
With black water and amber lights
And the bony bridge between left and right
Yvette in English, saying 'please have this
Little bit of instant bliss

My country 'tis of thee
Sweet land of liberty
Of thee I sing

Land where my fathers died

Land of the pilgrim's pride
>From every mountainside

Let freedom ring
Let freedom ring

Let it ring...

Intro. (Acoustic Guitar)
Guinnevere had green eyes
Like yours, mi'lady, like yours
She'd walk down through the garden
In the morning after it rained

Peacocks wandered aimlessly
Underneath an orange tree
Why can't she see me?

Da, da, da ...

Guinnevere drew pentagrams
Like yours, mi'lady, like yours
Late at night when she thought
That no one was watching at all
On the wall

Do, do, do ...
She shall be free
Da, da, da ...

As she turns her gaze
Down the slope to the harbor where I lay anchored
Turned out to be
Such a short day

Guinnevere had golden hair
Like yours, mi'lady, like yours
Streaming out when we'd ride
Through the warm wind down by the bay
Yesterday

Seagulls circle endlessly
I still sing in silent harmony
We both shall be free

Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It's gettin' kind of long
I could've said it was in my way

But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day
It's gettin' kind of long
I could've said it was in my way

But I didn't and I wonder why
I feel like letting my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it, ... someone

Must be because I had the flu for Christmas
And I'm not feeling up to par
It increases my paranoia
Like looking in my mirror and seeing a police car

Well I'm not giving in an inch to fear
cause I've promised myself this year
I feel like I owe it, ... someone

When I finally get myself together
I'm gonna get down in that sunny southern weather

And I'm goin' to find a space inside to laugh,
Separate the wheat from the chaff
I feel ...
Like I owe it, ... someone, yeah

Me and my good partners
we were riding back to our camp
we were feeling very fine
and the air was clear and slightly damp
and we were riding back to have ourselves a party
to celebrate the robbing of the train.

We were talking kind of low and lazy
about not having to go out soon again
you know we hadn't been back home two hours
we heard a hawk cry out in the night
and you know that's a signal from young Billy, who's our sentry

He's saying something here ain't exactly right
so we quick grabbed some of our hardware
stumbled out of our home
in two minutes flat we had found her
an Indian girl all alone

and Eli said, "Let's take her back to the cabin"
I said, "You don't know she might be the law, yeah"
He said, smiling kind of nasty,
"It ain't too damn likely she'll beat me to the draw."

As we were walking back through the darkness,
I heard the Duke, he's our dynamiter, say,
he said, "What's your name, sweet little Indian girl?"
She said, "Raven." and she looked away.
Right then I didn't trust her, no and I said so, oh no.

Now, Eli, he's our fastest gunner
He's kind of mean and young from the South
he said, "Fat Albert, you're getting kind of old and weird now."
"You'd better get your twelve gauge shot gun right out."

Now Eli and the Duke they got down to it
they each wanted the Indian girl for their own
but when they finally got around to asking her
you know she said she'd come to take young Billy home
Eli said he'd kill young Billy
he'd kill the Duke, and probably me too, yeah

The Indian girl said, "Go ahead now do it"
I said "Stop it", and she bit my thumb nearly clean through
and when they finally started to break down the door
I smeared my face up with blood from my thumb
I laid down on the floor and played real good possum

You know I'm crazy but I ain't real dumb
now I'm dying here in Albuquerque
I must be the sorriest sight you ever saw
you know the reason I'm the only man here to tell it
you know that Indian girl, she wasn't an Indian she was the law
