Name Of Love lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

You who rule upon the land,
You hold the future in your hand,
When you take your people down the road,
Before another bomb explodes.
Can you do it in the name of love?
Can you do it in the name of love?

And when you sail upon the sea
This one's for you, this one's for me.
Before another missile flies
You who soar into the sky
Can you do it in the name of love?
Can you do it in the name of love?

And so I shout it around the world
To every boy and every girl,
Yeah, I shout it around the world
To every boy and every girl,
Can you do it in the name of love?
Can you do it in the name of love?

Can you do it in the name of love?

Don't Say Goodbye lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Never leave me alone (don't say goodbye)
I don't wanna face my world without you.

Never leave me alone (don't say goodbye)
I don't wanna lose your lasting love.

Never tell me goodbye,
I don't wanna live my life without you.

Never tell me goodbye,
I don't wanna see you walk away from me.

If I open up my heart
I can always find you there
So I'll never be apart from you
My heart is on my sleeve
And even though you started to
I hope you never leave,
Never leave, me alone.

If I open up my heart
I can always find you there
So I'll never be apart from you
In you I still believe
And even though you started to
I hope you never leave,
Never leave, me alone.

Never leave me alone (don't say goodbye)
I don't wanna live my life without you.
Never leave me alone (don't say goodbye)
I don't wanna lose your lasting love.

This Old House lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Midnight, that old clock keeps ticking,
The kids are all asleep and I'm walking the floor.
Darlin' I can see that you're dreaming,
And I don't wanna wake you up
When I close the door.

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.

This old house of ours is built on dreams
And a businessman don't know what that means.
There's a swing outside the kids play on every day
And tomorrow morning a man from the bank's
Gonna come and take it all away.

Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away.
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.
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.

Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away.
Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away.

Nighttime For Generals lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Well it's nighttime and the long cars
Are arriving at the door,
The general is having another party,
With a congressman or three
And some guys you never see outside the bank.

There's a laughing clink of glasses
And a polished click of boots
And bitter talk of a country
With a weakness in its roots.

And it's nighttime for the generals
And the boys at the C.I.A.
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.
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.

They giveth, they taketh,

Nighttime, nighttime, nighttime.

Shadowland lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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.

Drivin' Thunder lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

People put me down, say that I'm a fool
But I got news for them
I ain't never going back to driving school.

And I ain't too good with numbers
And I've just run out of fuel
Here comes another corner baby
Let me demonstrate my slide rule.

Drivin' thunder, rollin' down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and that's my way.

I stopped into the courthouse
I had to pay some bills
Got talking with the judge
About the finer points of my driving skills.

He said Son, you only drive that way
Tryin' to get your thrills
But bear in mind your driver's license
Ain't never been no license to kill.

Drivin' thunder, rollin' down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and that's my way.

Driving school,
Slide rule,
Driving skills,
License to kill.

Drivin' thunder, rollin' down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and that's my way.

Clear Blue Skies lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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.
We need all the help we can get
(And I know) we need all the time that we've got
(And I know) we need all the love we can give,
It will be here when we're gone (clear blue skies)
It will be here when we're gone
It will be here when we're gone (clear blue skies)
Clear blue skies
Clear blue skies (clear blue skies).
Clear blue skies (clear blue skies).

That Girl lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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'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.

(Choose that girl, refuse that girl, lose that girl.)

Compass lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

I have wasted ten years in a blind-fold,
Ten-fold more than I've invested now in sight.
I have traveled beveled 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.

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).

Soldiers Of Peace lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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.
The old warriors don't want you to hurt any more.

Soldiers of peace are not fighting a war.
No more, no more, no more, no more.

Feel Your Love lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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.

I wanna feel your love, I wanna feel your love,
I wanna feel your love, feel your love, feel your love.

Night Song lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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 can't we
Sing this nightsong.

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 can't we
Sing this nightsong.

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 can't we
Sing this nightsong.

Why not keep on singing anyway?

Suite: Judy Blue Eyes lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

It's getting to the point where I am no fun anymore, I am sorry.
Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud, 'I am lonely.'
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Remember what we've said, and done and felt about each other, oh babe, have mercy.
Don't let the past, remind us of what we are not now, I am not dreaming.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Tearing yourself away from me now, you are free and I am crying.
This does not mean I don't love you, I do, that's forever, yes, and for always.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret. Are you still listening?
Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart and I love you.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
And you make it hard, and you make it hard, and you make it hard, and you make it hard.

Friday evening, Sunday in the afternoon, what have you got to lose?
Tuesday morning, please be gone, I'm tired of you what have you got to lose?
Can I tell it like it is, listen to me baby-
It's my heart that's a suffering, it a-dying and that's what I have to lose.

I've got an answer. I'm going to fly away, what have I got to lose?
Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays? What have you got to lose?

Chestnut brown canary, ruby throated sparrow,
Sing a song, don't be long, thrill me to the marrow.
Voices of the angels, ring around the moonlight,
Asking me, said, she so free, how can you catch the sparrow?
Lacy, lilting lyrics, losing love lamenting. Change by life, make it right, be my lady.

On The Way Home lyrics - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young


When the dream came
I held my breath
With my eyes closed
I went insane,
Like a smoke ring day
When the wind blows
Now I won't be back
Till later on
If I do come back at all
But you know me,
And I miss you now.

In a strange game
I saw myself as you knew me
When the change came,
And you had a
Chance to see through me
Though the other side
Is just the same
You can tell
My dream is real
Because I love you,
Can you see me now.

Though we rush ahead
To save our time
We are only what we feel
And I love you,
Can you feel it now.
