Crosby, David - Things We Do For Love Lyrics






Was it something she said
About a dream she had?
One of those ones
That faded so fast you knew it was bad
She dreams
That she's losing you
I guess it's time
There's only so much time

To reach in through
The fear
That's holding her here

These are the things
These are the things we do
These are the things
These are the things we do
For love

At first it's just fun
But love is long
A little each day
You build it that way

It's being around
Another set of hands
It's not what you want
It's only that you will
Kindle the flame

These are the things
These are the things we do
These are the things
These are the things we do
These are the things
These are the things we do
For love

And now looking back
Down these parallel tracks
Where do you stand?
Where do you stand?
Where do you stand?
Where?

  4. P.... P....

    After 50 years I still ask the same Q, when you have a unique talent for the ear and ensuing harmony that nobody can teach you...how the fuck does Nashy get to judge a God given gift???

  5. P.... P....

    At first its just fun, but Love is Long....

  6. P.... P....

  10. b.... w....

    Fuck David Crosby

  11. D.... F....

    Great guitar sound

  12. E.... W....

    David Crosby had six or seven bastard children and when the women he impregnated asked for Crosby’s help, he rejected them without a second thought. So sad 😭......,

    E.... W....

    True and sad. Anyway David´s music is unbelievabel fantastic and has a "healing effect" for me. I think everybody here can just do what is possible for him or her. Even it is poor, sad or seems to be to less sometimes...

    E.... W....

    Bullshit!

  13. A.... S....

    Whew, that was close. For a moment I thought it might be a cover of the old 10cc hit.

  14. B.... S....

    DAVID V.C. CROSBY!!THE THINGS WE DO FOR LOVE from new Lighthouse?The whispered ultra truisms make this another Crosby masterpiece.I 've all ways loved Beatle and CSNY music,However,there's something supernal in the deep works OF GEORGE HARRISON AND DAVID CROSBY,and beda use I love a beautiful sounding instrument I'm hypnoenergized by this kind of ultraexpression.Croz must tune just below true 440,like the "James Taylor tuning,"on the harmonic node like my Dad used to say(also a piano player /tuner),but his touch or string pressure must be so slight a superaccurate,like this guy I spoke to in StLouis some years ago who saw Johnny Winter Play Slide UPCLOSE,and he said his touch was so light he thought it looked like he wasn't even touching the strings with the Slide(that famous "pipe " he cut).

    Dave and Jan Crosby so completely sad to here mrGraham Nash s complete disavow ing The Crosby Genius of CSNY(wich could have included Joni Mitchel and Judy Collins-a helluva lot of freedom to find the cost of!)and their duo was The Majestic Voice Of David V.C.Crosby as well as Grahams voice and guitar in his range.I saw CSNY at red Rocks CO David says to a muddleing talking crowd "Well we ended the draft",on my feet before I knew and all ready screaming 1941 to 75 Thank You God Thank you!!!!whereby Elder Croz sang the most righteous ,powerfull Almost Cut (This)My hair ever,ever Heard on this Planet or anyone like it,WISH CSNY COULD HAVE BEEN BERNIES SANDERS FREEDOM OF SPEECH TOUR 16!!The Graham Nash Niel Young debacle most confounding LOOKING FOWARD STILL BEST ALBUM UNRELEASED CAN ALBUM AND TOUR 2000 LIVE ALBUM SHOULD BE RELEASED,GIVE GRA AND NEIL MORE MONEY!!!!!#Chris Young,PEACE AND LOVE

  29. s.... �....

    Most anticipated album of the year for me. PS. Hey Mike!

  30. M.... D....

    Hi David, my wife and I used to make an annual summer trip to Philly to see the CSN concert every year back in the 90's and loved every one of them. We also saw you at the University Of Delaware Field House, which is only a few miles from here, just after you had been released from the hospital. We ended up sitting about 8 rows back from the stage. Thank you for those sweet memories. In the last few years I have become connected with artists from around the world through Fandalism and have been making the best music of my life and loving every minute of it. I just listened to "Things We Do For Love" and I have to say your voice and writing are most certainly the best they have ever been!! That was absolutely a diamond and I look forward to the release of the CD. Best wishes to you and yours!
