Neil Young - War Of Man Lyrics
The little creatures run in from the coldBack to the nest just like the days of oldThere in the safety of a mothers armsThe warmth of ages, far away from harm again.Ears ringin from the battle fireThe tired warrior aims a little higherThe black falcon or the little sparrowThe healing light or the flash of the barrel.No one winsIts a war of man,No one winsIts a war of man.Silver mane flyin in the windDown through the planets on the run againNo one knows where theyre runnin toBut every kind is comin two by two.Out on the delta where the hoofbeats poundThe daddys runnin on the frozen groundCant smell the poison as it follows himCant see the gas and machines, its a war of man.No one winsIts a war of man,No one winsIts a war of man.The windows open and the little girl dreamsThe skys her playground as she mounts her steedAcross the heavens to the other sideOn wings of magic does the little girl ride.The baby creatures run in from the coldBack to the nest just like the days of oldThere in the safety of a mothers armsThe warmth of ages, far away from harm again.No one winsIts a war of man,No one winsIts a war of man,No one wins.
