Lyrics Long Time Gone (1968 Demo) - Crosby, Stills & Nash
It's been a long time comin'
It's goin' to be a long time gone
And it appears to be a long night
Before the dawn
You can smell somethin' burnin'
But you don't know who lit the fire
You can feel pavement getting hotter
You can't see things like I
And it appears to be a long night
Before the dawn
Turn, turn any corner
Hear what the people say
There's something going on around here
That surely, surely won't stand the light of day
And it appears to be a long night
Before the dawn
Speak out, speak out against the madness
Speak your mind if you dare
But don't, most especially don't try to get yourself elected
And if you do, you better cut your hair
Because it appears to be a long night
Before the dawn
It's been a long time comin'
It's goin' to be a long time gone
But you know
That the darkest hour
Is always just before the dawn
