One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone A new day, a new way, I knew I should see it along Go your way, I'll go mine and Carry on The sky is clearing and the night Has gone out The sun, he come, the world is all full of light Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but To carry on The fortunes of fables are able To sing the song Now witness the quickness with which We get along To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and Carry on Carry on Love is coming Love is coming to us all Where are you going now my love? Where will you be tomorrow? Will you bring me happiness? Will you bring me sorrow? Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams What you do and what you see Lover can you talk to me? Girl when I was on my own Chasing you down What was it made you run? Trying your best just to get around. The questions of a thousand dreams What you do and what you see Lover can you talk to me |

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by And so become yourself Because the past is just a good bye. Teach your children well, Their father's hell did slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. And you, of tender years, Can't know the fears that your elders grew by, And so please help them with your youth, They seek the truth before they can die. Teach your parents well, Their children's hell will slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you |

Almost cut my hair
It happened just the other day It's gettin kinda long I coulda said it wasn't in my way But I didn't and I wonder why I feel like letting my freak flag fly Cause I feel like I owe it to someone Must be because I had the flu' for Christmas And I'm not feeling up to par It increases my paranoia Like looking at my mirror and seeing a scar But I'm not giving in an inch to fear Cause I missed myself this year I feel like I owe it to someone When I finally get myself together I'm going to get down in that sunny southern weather And I find a place inside to laugh Separate the wheat from the chaff I feel like I owe it to someone |

There is a town in north Ontario,
With dream comfort memory to spare, and in my mind I still need a place to go, All my changes were there, Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Helpless, helpless, helpless Baby can you hear me now? The chains are locked and tied across the door, Baby, sing with me somehow. Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes |

Well I came across a child of God
He was walking along the road And I asked him tell where are you going This he told me Well I am going down to Yasgur's farm Going to join in a rock and roll band Goin' to get back to the land to set my soul free We are stardust, we are golden And we got to get ourselves back to the garden Well then can I walk beside you I have come to lose the smog And I feel like I'm a cog in something turning And maybe it's the time of year Yes and maybe it's the time of man And I don't know who I am But life is for learning We are stardust, we are golden And we got to get ourselves back to the garden By the time we got to Woodstock We were half a million strong And everywhere there was song and celebration And I dreamed I saw the bombers jet planes Riding shotgun in the sky Turning into butterflies Above our nation. We are stardust, we are golden And we got to get ourselves back to the garden |

years ago
I come into this life The song of a woman And a man who lived in strife He was tired of being poor And he wasn't into selling door to door And he worked like the devil to be more A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul Night after sleepless night I walk the floor and I want to know Why am I so alone? Where is my woman can I bring her home? Have I driven her away? Is she gone? Morning comes to sunrise And I'm driven to my bed I see that it is empty And there's devils in my head I embrace the many colored beast I grow weary of the torment Can there be no peace? And I find myself just wishing that my life would simply cease |

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 shade 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 Aaaah ... 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 It were that simple for me |

I recall my so called misspent youth It seems more worthwhile Every single day Cruisin' Van Nuys and acting so uncooth All the joys of runnin' away There was no speed limit On the Nevada state line The air was red wine On those top down nights Just you and me My old rollarskate And the common sense To know our rights Sweet old racin' car of mine Roarin' down that broken line I never been so much alive Too fast for comfort Too low to fly Too young to die You say a man can't love a material thing With aluminum skin And a cast iron soul But they never heard your engine sing Ah there's peace in losing control "Sticky fingers" turned up real loud Ah, we were flirtin' with catastrophe We were doing everything that's not allowed Life didn't come With a warranty For you and me Sweet old racin' car of mine Roarin' down that broken line I never been so much alive Too fast for comfort Too low to fly Too young to die There is peace in losing control When I die I don't wanna go to heaven I just wanna drive my beautiful machine Up north on some sonoma country road With Jimmy Dean and Steve McQueen All the boys be singin', singin' Sweet old racin' car of mine Roarin' down that broken line I never been so much alive Too fast for comfort Too low to fly Too young to die Just a little bit too young Too young To die |

Listen old soldier wherever you are
The hills or the valleys Come near or come far They say youth's a treasure We waste when we're young So come down from the place Where your medals are hung You're forever returning and learning to fight And you feel just like an old soldier tonight Listen old soldier 'cause time doesn't wait The moon's on your shoulder The hour is late There's something there inside you Still calls out to you And you won't fade away Whatever you do You're forever beginning Barely winning the fight And you feel just like an old soldier tonight You're not getting any younger That much is true now But you've still got that hunger Burning in you now So what do you do now What do you do now Listen old soldier To the sound in your ears Of too many battles For too many years There's only one thing You've learned in defeat Losing is bitter And victory is sweet You're always unravelling Traveling light And you feel just like an old soldier tonight Feel just like an old soldier tonight |

You were dreaming on a park bench About a broad highway somewhere When the music from the carillon Seemed to hurl your heart out there Past the scientific darkness Past the fireflies that float To an angel bending down To wrap you in her warmest cloak And you ask "What am I not doing?" She says, "Your voice cannot command" She says, "In time you will move Mountains And it will come Through your hands." Still you angle for an option Still you argue for your cause Like you wouldn't know a burning Bush Till it blew up in your face We dream about the future We memorize the past When just a simple reaching out Could build a bridge that lasts And you ask "What am I not doing?" She says, "Your voice cannot command" She says, "In time you will move Mountains And it will come Through your hands." So whatever your hands find to do You must do with all your heart There are thoughts enough to Blow men's minds And tear great worlds apart There's a healing touch to find you Out on that broad highway Somewhere Gonna lift you as high as music Running through an angel's hair And don't worry What you are not doing 'Cause your voice cannot command And in time you will move mountains And it will come through your hands Through your hands Through your hands |

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 |

I used to walk around with my eyes on fire My nerves real close to my skin Had a fist full of questions and a brand on my cheek And we would skate where the ice got thin And the smoke blowin' down from a cabin on a hilltop Smoke blowin' down in the street Some kind of sweet smellin' mystical backdrop To the story unfolding at my feet There's an edge to the twist of an acrobat in the air There's an edge to the twist of a knife There's a hard heart of darkness hovering there Just around the corner from life And I, I have no answers I got no patented path to set you free Besides I wouldn't know where you wanted to go And it's probably not the same place as me There's a thousand roads up this mountain You can get lost in a minute if you try And it's probably enough that I was just laughing today, yeah Lookin' this close in your eye I said there was a thousand roads up this mountain You can get lost in a minute if you try It's probably enough that I was just laughing today, yeah Looking this close in your eye, in your eye In your eye |

Better keep your distance from this whale Better keep your boat from going astray Find yourself a partner and treat them well Try to give them shelter night and day 'Cause here in the blue light Far away from the fireside Things can get twisted and crazy and crowded You can't even feel right So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart See how the cormorant swoops and dives Must be a thrill to go that deep Down to the basement of this life Down to where the mermaid gently sleeps Not like here in the blue light Far away from the fireside Where things get twisted and Haunted and crowded You can't even feel right So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart As the tide must ebb and flow I am dragged down under I wait the livelong day For an end to my hunger So I dream of columbus Every time the panic starts I dream of columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts I dream of columbus There's an ache in a traveling heart |

This old house of ours is built on dreams And a businessman don't know what that means. There's a garden outside she works in every day And tomorrow morning a man from the bank's Gonna come and take it all away. Lately, I've been thinking 'bout daddy, And how he always made things work, When the chips were down, And I know I've got something inside me There's always a light there to guide me To what can't be found.

Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away. Remember how we first came here together? Standing on an empty lot, holding hands. Later, we came back in the moonlight And made love right where the kitchen is, Then we made our plans. This old house of ours is built on dreams And a businessman don't know what that means.

Power gone mad in the darkness Thinking they're God on a good day They giveth, they taketh But they like to take it away. "Well the fools don't know the difference It's for their own good," they said. And they shot blind Lady Liberty In the back of her head. And it's nighttime for the generals And the boys at the C.I.A.

Behind a nation's blind salute Behind "my country 'tis of thee" Behind the pain that won't compute Erase the memory of Shadowland. An open wound that never heals A bone that never seems to set A mind that thinks but never feels The face we've never met from Shadowland. They tell us time and time again They only want a few good men They lead us through the lion's den To Shadowland. The world would just as soon forget And watch the wreckage drift ashore Ten years reduced to one regret The baggage of war from Shadowland. Don't ask us how our names were lost Our nation did a sleight of hand We never saw the line we crossed That took us into Shadowland. They tell us time and time again They only want a few good men They lead us through the lion's den To Shadowland. The son will reap what fathers sow But mothers have to hear the sound Of the last breath of the boy next door Whose life has ended Shadowland, Shadowland, Shadowland |

Clear blue skies, not too much to ask for, They were here before we came, Will they be here when we're gone? Clean water, not too much to hope for, It's the basis of our lives And without it we are done. Well we can keep our eyes upon the skies And see how the time goes by Or we can find our fears among the tears That fall when the meadows cry, cry cry. Well we can keep our eyes upon the skies And see how the time goes by Or we can find our fears among the tears That fall when the meadow cries. Clear ideas, much too much to think of.

I can't stop thinking 'bout her 'Cos she's mighty fine and I would be lying If I didn't speak up now, Say what's on my mind, almost any old time. I'm ready to choose that girl I couldn't refuse that girl You'd better not lose that girl I just might let myself fall in love That girl is all the woman I'm dreaming of. So many years you've been a true friend of mine, But I draw the line and I ain't gonna run no number But you gotta know if you let her go I'm ready to choose that girl I couldn't refuse that girl You'd better not lose that girl I just might let myself fall in love That girl is all the woman I'm dreaming of. Can't you see, we gotta get to know How far this can go You and me we gotta get it right 'Cos this ain't love at first sight I want you to understand that I can't help myself. And I'm gonna be right there with you Only time will tell if it was only me that fell.

I have wasted ten years in a blind-fold, Ten-fold more than I've invested now in sight. I have travelled bevelled mirrors in a fly crawl, Losing the reflection of a fight. But like a compass seeking north, (seeking north). There lives in me a still, sure, spirit part. Clouds of doubt are cut asunder (clouds of doubt). By the lightning and the thunder Shining from the compass of my heart (shining from my heart). I have flown the frantic flight of the bat-wing And only known the dark because of that I have seized death's door-handle Like a fish out of the water Waiting for the mercy of the cat.

Soldiers of peace are not fighting a war Are not looking for enemies behind every door Are not looking for people to kill or to maim. Soldiers of peace are just changing the game. Men who were fighting for all of our lives Are now fighting for children, for homes and for wives, Fighting for the memory of all who fell before, But the soldiers of peace just can't kill any more. So come all you warriors who live for the fight, Come listen to somebody, somebody who might Have been there before you and they have the right, They've been dying to tell you the score. The old warriors don't want you to hurt any more. Soldiers of peace can still hear the cries When the people were screaming and losing their lives, When bodies were broken and spirits were torn The soldiers of peace do not want you to mourn. So come all you warriors who live for the fight, Come listen to somebody, somebody who might Have been there before you and they have the right, They've been dying to tell you the score.

High on a balcony, right where we used to be, This city dancing like a sparkling sea. I wanna catch a wave, I wanna swim to shore. Walk on that same beach like I did before. I really want the sun, want the sun to rise, I really want to end the night. I really wanna feel, wanna feel your love. I wanna feel your love. I think of our old friends, I count my enemies. I hear you tell me how I don't know love. I wanna feel your love, I wanna lay right down. Wish I was swimming in the sound of love. I really want the night, want the night to end. I really want the sun to rise. I really wanna feel, wanna feel your love. I wanna feel your love. And now the night is still, the mansion on the hill, The children sleeping in their endless dreams. I wanna feel your love, I wanna feel your love, I wanna feel your love, feel your love, feel your love.

Tell me where Does it say When you're lost you stay that way Why a forest of fools getting in the way Cannot hear, cannot fade with the nightsong. Nightsong, from my heart Why not keep on Singing anyway. All alone I reflect on my demons in the night Some are wise, Some are good, Some are not so bright. I can't hear. Sing along with the nightsong. Nightsong, from my heart Why not keep on Singing anyway. Why not keep on singing anyway? Run away. I don't know what it was Led you astray, Just because you're too much like I am anyway. I will come You can't hide From the nightsong. Nightsong, from my heart Why not keep on Singing anyway.

One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone A new day, a new way, I knew I should see it along Go your way, I'll go mine and Carry on The sky is clearing and the night Has gone out The sun, he come, the world is all full of light Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but To carry on The fortunes of fables are able To sing the song Now witness the quickness with which We get along To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and Carry on Carry on Love is coming Love is coming to us all Where are you going now my love? Where will you be tomorrow? Will you bring me happiness? Will you bring me sorrow? Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams What you do and what you see Lover can you talk to me?

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by And so become yourself Because the past is just a good bye. Teach your children well, Their father's hell did slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. And you, of tender years, Can't know the fears that your elders grew by, And so please help them with your youth, They seek the truth before they can die. Teach your parents well, Their children's hell will slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you |

With dream comfort memory to spare, and in my mind I still need a place to go, All my changes were there, Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Helpless, helpless, helpless Baby can you hear me now? The chains are locked and tied across the door, Baby, sing with me somehow.

I come into this life The song of a woman And a man who lived in strife He was tired of being poor And he wasn't into selling door to door And he worked like the devil to be more A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul Night after sleepless night I walk the floor and I want to know Why am I so alone? Where is my woman can I bring her home? Have I driven her away? Is she gone? Morning comes to sunrise And I'm driven to my bed I see that it is empty And there's devils in my head I embrace the many colored beast I grow weary of the torment Can there be no peace?

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 (c) 1988 Stay Straight Music (BMI) Guitar: David Crosby Guitar: Michael Hedges Additional Vocals: Graham Nash, Michael Hedges |

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 |

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 ⓒ 1968 Stay Straight Music (BMI) |
