Long Time Gone Songtext
von Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

It′s been a long time comin'
It′s goin' to be a long time gone

And it appears to be a long (yeah)
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time
Such a long, long time before the dawn

Turn, turn any corner
Turn and hear, swear that you'll hate what you gotta hear
What the people is saying to you, yeah
There′s something
There′s something goin' on around here
Surely, you know it surely won′t stand the light of day

And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Such a long time
Such a long time before the dawn


Speak out
Speak out against the madness
Speak your mind, yeah
That is, if you still can and if you still dare
Why don't you? Yeah
But don′t, no, don't
I said don′t, yeah
I said don't, yeah
If you do, you had better cut your hair, yeah

And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long, long, long time
Such a long, long, long time before the dawn

It's been a long time comin′
It′s goin' to be a long time gone
But you know
The darkest hour is always
Always just before the dawn

And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time

Because we on our tongue
This is a Steven Stills acoustic song done electrically
