War of Man - Neil Young

Written by：Neil Young

The little creatures

Run in from the cold

Back to the nest

Just like the days of old

There in the safety

Of a mother's arms

The warmth of ages

Far away from harm again

Ears ringin'

From the battle fire

The tired warrior

Aims a little higher

The black falcon

Or the little sparrow

The healing light

Or the flash of the barrel

No one wins

It's a war of man

No one wins

It's a war of man

Silver mane flyin' in the wind

Down through the planets

On the run again

No one knows where

They're runnin' to

But every kind is comin'

Two by two

Out on the delta

Where the hoofbeats pound

The daddy's runnin'

On the frozen ground

Can't smell the poison

As it follows him

Can't see the gas and machines

It's a war of man

No one wins

It's a war of man

No one wins

It's a war of man

The windows open

And the little girl dreams

The sky's her playground

As she mounts her steed

Across the heavens

To the other side

On wings of magic

Does the little girl ride

The baby creatures

Run in from the cold

Back to the nest

Just like the days of old

There in the safety

Of a mother's arms

The warmth of ages

Far away from harm again

No one wins

It's a war of man

No one wins

It's a war of man

No one wins

No one wins
