《Dream for Him》歌词

[00:00:00] Dream For Him - Crosby/Stills

[00:00:46] How am I going to explain it to him

[00:00:53] What am I going to say when it's something that grim

[00:00:59] How the hell do you tell them there comes an end

[00:01:06] How are you going to handle it and still be their friend

[00:01:14] How do you explain this world we face

[00:01:20] To all of the innocents we brought to this place

[00:01:28] These and other questions stand in a row

[00:01:35] And I'm not satisfied with the answers I know

[00:01:41] What are you going to say to those eyes

[00:01:48] I can't even get close to the lies

[00:01:55] That are easier to tell, you just say oh, well

[00:02:01] I'll explain it when he's older

[00:02:05] But somehow that's colder than I want to be

[00:02:16] I am uncomfortable lying to a child

[00:02:23] Feels like building a trap for something wild

[00:02:30] Feels like building your house on the sand

[00:02:36] And expecting the ocean to let it stand

[00:02:43] Somehow I must come up with better stuff

[00:02:50] You see, I'm just not satisfied with all that simplified guff

[00:02:56] That they shovel at the kids by the handful

[00:03:00] Like candy they buy at the stand full

[00:03:04] Of flags by the side of the road

[00:03:07] It's not good for them to hand them that load of crap like they do

[00:03:45] You see, I want a world where I can tell him the truth

[00:03:51] About everything from Jesus to John Wilkes booth

[00:03:57] How they lie in the house and the senate too

[00:04:04] Only get close to the truth when it suits them to

[00:04:10] And the very next day

[00:04:14] They're back to lying that way

[00:04:25] Of course it doesn't seem to matter what I want

[00:04:31] But I look at some of the faces all haggard and gaunt

[00:04:38] I wonder which thing made them lose their dreams

[00:04:44] 'Caus mine is alive very much it would seem

[00:04:50] And I would just like to be able to hand it to him

[00:04:57] Without the light in those eyes ever getting dim

[00:05:04] I want a dream for him

[00:05:12] I want a dream for him

[00:05:32] (Dream for him)

[00:05:41] (Dream for him)

[00:05:46] (Dream for him)

[00:05:54] (Dream for him)

[00:06:38] (Dream for him)

[00:06:47] (Dream for him)

[00:06:51] (Dream for him)

[00:07:00] (Dream for him)

[00:07:18] (Dream for him)

[00:07:26] (Dream for him)
