It's getting to the point where I'm no fun any more

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

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?
Help me I'm suffering
Listen to me baby
It's my heart that's suffering
Help me, I'm crying to you
It's dyin' 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 lady
Losing love lamenting
Change my life, make it right
Be my lady

Do do do do do, do do do do do do
Do do do do do, do do do do

Que linda me la traiga Cuba
La reina de la Mar Caribe
Cielo sol no tiene sangreahi
Y que triste que no puedo vaya
Oh va, oh va, va!

1. Kick for Crosby, Stills and Nash.....
Neil Young wasn't with them yet, was he?

2. Sure he was :) Just not on a permanent basis. He joined them
at Woodstock which was mere months after the release of their first album. As Dave Crosby said at Woodstock "this is only our second gig in front of people, we're scared shitless" :)

3. When I was young
that song never made me sad. It does now, but I still love it.

4. It never makes me sad, but the super emotional tinge when
he breaks into the solo vocal:

Can I tell it like it is?
Listen to me baby.
It's my heart that's sufering
It's dying, that's what I have to lose.


There's so much raw emotion there, it does bring a tear to my eye.
