Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - Shadowland Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Written by Rick Ryan, Graham Nash & Joe Vitale
  • Behind a nation's blind salute
  • Behind "my country 'tis of thee"
  • Behind the pain that won't compute
  • Erase the memory of Shadowland.
  • An open wound that never heals
  • A bone that never seems to set
  • A mind that thinks but never feels
  • The face we've never met from Shadowland.
  • They tell us time and time again
  • They only want a few good men
  • They lead us through the lion's den
  • To Shadowland.
  • The world would just as soon forget
  • And watch the wreckage drift ashore
  • Ten years reduced to one regret
  • The baggage of war from Shadowland.
  • Don't ask us how our names were lost
  • Our nation did a sleight of hand
  • We never saw the line we crossed
  • That took us into Shadowland.
  • They tell us time and time again
  • They only want a few good men
  • They lead us through the lion's den
  • To Shadowland.
  • The son will reap what fathers sow
  • But mothers have to hear the sound
  • Of the last breath of the boy next door
  • Whose life has ended
  • Shadowland, Shadowland, Shadowland.
