david crosby - i won't stay for long lyrics

[intro]
one, two, three

[verse 1]
i’m standing on the porch
like it’s the edge of a cliff
beyond the grass and gravel lies a certain abyss
and i don’t think i will try it today
i’m facing a squall like of a thousand+year storm
i don’t know if i’m dying or about to be born
but i’d like to be with you today
yes, i’d like to be with you today

[chorus]
and i won’t stay for long
i’ve got a place of my own
a little slice
there’s a sliver of air between the water and the ice
it’s where i live, where i breathe
an abandoned song
it echoes through this well i’ve fallen in
if i could just remember the smell of your skin
then i could live, i could breathe
i could breathe

[verse 2]
i’m asking perfect strangers if i look to be alright
i feel like i lost an anger in the ocean of my night
and i don’t want you to see me this way
i won’t tell a soul
i’ll only worship the sun
i won’t turn around to find you when the moment is done
i just need to be close today
i need to be with you today
[chorus]
and i won’t stay for long
i’ve got a place of my own
a little slice
there’s a sliver of air between the water and the ice
it’s where i live, where i breathe
an abandoned song
it echoes through this well i’ve fallen in
if i could just remember the smell of your skin
i could live, i could breathe
i could breathe
