Listen old soldier wherever you are
The hills or the valleys
Come near or come far
They say youth's a treasure
We waste when we're young
So come down from the place
Where your medals are hung
You're forever returning and learning to fight
And you feel just like an old soldier tonight
Listen old soldier 'cause time doesn't wait
The moon's on your shoulder
The hour is late
There's something there inside you
Still calls out to you
And you won't fade away
Whatever you do
You're forever beginning
Barely winning the fight
And you feel just like an old soldier tonight
You're not getting any younger
That much is true now
But you've still got that hunger
Burning in you now
So what do you do now
What do you do now
Listen old soldier
To the sound in your ears
Of too many battles
For too many years
There's only one thing
You've learned in defeat
Losing is bitter
And victory is sweet
You're always unravelling
Traveling light
And you feel just like an old soldier tonight
Feel just like an old soldier tonight

David Van Cortlandt Crosby (Los Angeles, 14 agosto 1941 – Santa Monica, 18 gennaio 2023) è stato un chitarrista, cantautore e musicista statunitense. Considerato uno dei pilastri della musica folk-rock americana, Crosby ha raggiunto fama internazionale come membro fondatore dei Byrds negli anni '60, gruppo che ha contribuito a definire il suono del folk rock con successi come "Mr. Tambourine Man" e "Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season)". Dopo la sua esperienza con i Byrds, Crosby ha formato un duo di successo con Stephen Stills e Graham Nash, noto come Crosby, Stills and Nash. Il trio ha pubblicato alcuni degli album folk-rock più influenti degli anni '70, tra cui "Déjà Vu" (1970) e "4 Way Street" (1971), caratterizzati da armonie vocali impeccabili e testi introspettivi. Crosby ha continuato a registrare musica in solitario e con diverse formazioni musicali fino alla fine della sua carriera, lasciando un'eredità significativa nella storia della musica americana.
