about
David Crosby passed away on January 18, 2023 and his music had always been a huge inspiration for us, so this cover has been made to celebrate him.
It talks about disappointment, lyrics look for the meaning of Right and Wrong and sing about how difficult does real life make those concepts to be told one from the other.
This song is dedicated to anyone who misses David Crosby's voice, especially to James Raymond and Jeff Pevar
lyrics
It was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered
What was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew
Shadow and shape
Mix together at dawn
But by the time you catch them
Simplicity's gone
So we sort through the pieces
My friends and I
Searching through the darkness
To find the breaks in the sky
And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered
What was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew
And we wonder, yes, we wonder
How do you make sense of this
When the hero kills the maiden
With his kiss, with his kiss
Well, it was one of those great stories
That you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do
And he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail
While the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me
Were that simple for me
