Lyrics David Crosby

David Crosby

Long Time Gone

It's been a long time comin'

Goin' to be a long time gone

And it appears to be a long

Appears to be a long

Appears to be a long time

Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah

Turn, turn any corner

Turn and hear

What your friends and your neighbors might have to say, yeah

Something, something, something's goin' on around here

Surely, surely, surely will not stand the light of day

And it appears to be a long

Appears to be a long, yeah

Appears to be a long time

Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah, yeah, yeah

Speak out, speak out against the madness, yes, yeah, yeah

All I'm sayin' is speak your mind

That is if you still can and you still have the guts to

Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't

Try to get yourself elected, no, no

And if you do forsake this child you'd better cut your hair

It appears to be a long, yes it does now

Appears to be a long, yeah, yeah

Appears to be a long such a long, a long

Such a long, long time before the dawn

It's been a long time comin'

It'll be a long time gone

But you know, the darkest hour, yeah

It is always, just before your dawn, yes it is

And it appears to be a long, oh, oh

Appears to be a long, oh, oh, oh

Appears to be a long time

Such a long, long time

And it appears to be a long, yeah
