How can I sweep these words into a cluster
Put 'em in a pile like feathers on your floor?
Voyages and sea forests deep blue and rusty
Sew 'em in a satchel 'n leave 'em at your door
People's lives, people's whose lives
They fascinate me
All my life, all my life
I've wanted to understand
There's a man on the corner he's got the moon in his eyes
He just comes here to visit and he wears a disguise
And I wonder if he's looking for friends or for truth
I think he's calling for some in that telephone booth
And the smiling woman answers
She defeats fear with her eyes
She thinks life's fine so I think she's wise
And my heart wants to give her a gift so grand
That it will speak for me and tell her just where I stand
And I stand on a pillar and it's melting like ice
Of years that I've lived and some I've lived twice
And I have all these feathers and leaves on my floor
That I don't want just blowing around loose anymore
And I feel a need to gather to rummage and fetch
To shake out my life and give it a stretch
To bring shells to the surface, give 'em to you
Gifts from the sea floor rusty and blue
Instrumental (Electric Guitar)
Now these two lives hold my attention quite well
You see lives almost never run parallel
Like the boards in the flooring all deep grained and worn
Fated and fitted long before we were born
People's lives, people's whose lives
They fascinate me
All my life, all my life
I've wanted to understand
Understand
Instrumental Ending (Electric Guitar)

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.
