crosby stills nash young - compass lyrics
(5:19)
written by david crosby, published by stay straight music (c) 1987.
recorded march 22nd, 1988
i have wasted ten years in a blind-fold,
ten-fold more than i’ve invested now in sight.
i have traveled beveled mirrors in a fly crawl,
losing the reflection of a fight.
but like a comp-ss seeking north, (seeking north).
there lives in me a still, sure, spirit part.
clouds of doubt are cut asunder (clouds of doubt).
by the lightning and the thunder
shining from the comp-ss of my heart (shining from my heart).
i have flown the frantic flight of the bat-wing
and only known the dark because of that
i have seized death’s door-handle
like a fish out of the water
waiting for the mercy of the cat.
but like a comp-ss seeking north, (seeking north).
there lives in me a still, sure, spirit part.
clouds of doubt are cut asunder (clouds of doubt).
by the lightning and the thunder
shining from the comp-ss of my heart (shining from my heart).
