Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was lost and I don't think he wanted it that way
Like a gull blown inland on a stormy day
Lost in round one, spitting out pieces of his teeth
Lost in a Paris graveyard, carrying his own wreath
[Verse 2]
And I have seen that movie and it wasn't like that
He was mad and lonely, blind as a bat
To the bridge and the falling tree
Too deaf to hear his own song, you see
[Verse 3]
Oh, how does anyone get to there? We may never know
Oh, how they got that far or, or what made them go
But he'd flown from his homeland, you could see him there
A gull circling in the high desert air
[Verse 4]
And I have seen that movie and it wasn't like that
He was mad and lonely, blind as a bat
To the bridge and the falling tree
Too deaf to hear his own song, you see
[Verse 5]
And somehow I have to learn from this
'Cause I can hear him cry and feel the hiss
Of the wind in his feathers and the sand on his feet
As he dies in the desert on that Paris street
[Verse 6]
And I have seen that movie and it wasn't like that
He was mad and lonely, blind as a bat
To the bridge and the falling tree
Too deaf to hear his own song
[Verse 7]
And I have seen that movie and it wasn't like that
To the bridge and the falling tree
Too deaf to hear his own song
[Verse 8]
And I have seen that movie and it wasn't like that
Written by: David Crosby, James Raymond
