Gutwrenchingly beautiful. I have this track on regularly, cannot get enough of the simplicity, no bells and whistles...just beautiful, hauntingly beautiful lyrics, and those harmonies. Sublime. I've loved this over 45 years.... x
Holding you close, undisturbed before a fire The pressure in my chest when you breathe in my ear We both knew this would happen when you first appeared My Lady of the Island The browness of your body in the fireglow Except the places where the sun refused to go Our bodies were a perfect fit In afterglow we lay My Lady of the Island Letting myself wander through the world inside your eyes You know I'd like to stay here until every tear runs dry My Lady of the Island Wrapped around each other in the peeping sun Beams of sunshine light the stage, the red light's on I never want to finish what I've just begun with you My Lady of the Island
This song perfectly encapsulates the literal intoxicating qualities of being with the person you love.. It’s tangible. “The pressure in my chest when you breathe in my ear. We both knew this would happen, when you first appeared” A moment of slow time, I wish I could stay here forever with you, darling. My lady of the island. Most romantic song ever made.
"Simple Man" by Graham Nash (from the 1971 album "Songs for Beginners") czcams.com/video/EIq0mTKzYj0/video.html Lyrics I am a simple man So I sing a simple song Never been so much in love And never hurt so bad At the same time I am a simple man And I play a simple tune Wish that I could see you once again Across the room Like the first time Just want to hold youDon't want to hold you down Hear what you're saying And you're spinning my head around And I can't make it alone The ending of the tale Is the singing of the song Make me proud to be your man Only you can make me strong Like the last time Just want to hold you Don't want to hold you down I hear what you're saying And you're spinning my head around I can't make it alone
Holding you close undisturbed before a fire The pressure in my chest when you breathe in my ear We both knew this would happen when you first appeared My lady of the island The brownness of your body in the fire glow Except the places where the sun refused to go Our bodies were a perfect fit in afterglow we lay My lady of the island Letting myself wander through the world inside your eyes You know I'd like to stay here until every tear runs dry Do, do, do, do, do, do, do My lady of the island Wrapped around each other in the peeping sun Beams of sunshine light the stage the red light's on I never want to finish what I've just begun with you My lady of the island.
The saxophone breakout around 3:25 and 5:15 never fails to get me going!
yeahhh
Damn such a good Jam, last saw them at 4848 Fest...Need a Lettuce Fix
I love the simplicity of this song. ❤
Suite judy❤
Their voices were so sublime.
Wish that I could see you once again across the room....❤
One of my favorites!!!
We used to listen to this on vinyl in the basement. Harmonizing is beautiful and so on point. So glad for all those endless nights.

Simply an amazing song !
Just love these deep imaginary fantasy like tunes of the 60s that take you to another world hearing them ....... RIP David
May David Crosby Rest In Peace.....An immensely talented man !

This is NOT the album version. You really should not feature the album cover as a graphic when the music is not from the album.

Feel this is their best song, and it's not on any of their official album. Shame.
This album is one of the best of all time. There isn’t a bad song on it.

I never want to finish what I've just begun with you. Is such a beautiful line.
You ever hear music and knew it was meant to be? Lettuce was made for me, personally. Thank you.
yes!!! They're my favorite band.
Is this a cover? Or an original? I can't find it on any of their original albums , only a live album
Makes you cry and yearn for the days of our childhood
David Crosby was interviewed and in it said, ''If you want to understand Graham Nash then listen to Cold Rain''
