Dream for him
DREAM FOR HIM (David Crosby)how am going to explain it to himwhat am I going to say when it's something that grimhow the hell do you tell them that there comes an endhow are you going to handle it and still be their friendhow do you explain this world we faceto all of the innocents we have brought to this placethese and other questions stand in a rowand I'm not satisfied with the answers I knowwhat are you going to say to those eyesI can't even get close to the liesthat are easier to tell you just say oh wellI'll explain when he's older but somehow that's colderthan I want to be..............I am uncomfortable lying to a childfeels like building a trap... for something wildseems like building your house on the sandand then expecting the ocean to let it standsomehow I must come up with better stuffI'm just not satisfied with the simplified guffLetras de cancionesthat they shovel at kids by the handfullike the candy they buy at a stand fullof flags by the side of the roadit's not good for them to hand 'em that loadof crap like they do................I want a world where I can tell him the truthabout everyone from Jesus to John Wilkes Boothabout how they lie in the house and the senate tooand only get close to the truth when it suits them toand then on the very next daythey're back to lying that wayof course it doesn't seem to matter what I wantbut I look at some of the faces all haggard and gauntand I wonder which thing made them lose their dreamcause mine is alive very much it would seemand I would just love to be able to hand it to himwithout the light in those eyes ever getting dimI want a dream for him..............I want a dream for him..............I want a dream for himĀ©1998 Stay Straight Music (BMI),Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young"Looking Forward"Reprise Records 1999CPR "Live At The Wiltern"CPR Records 1998 From Letras Mania
