Triad 

by David Crosby

Performed on the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young album "4 Way Street"



You want to know how it will be

Me and her or you and me

You both sit there with your long hair flowing

Your eyes alive, your minds are still growing

Saying to me what can we do now that we

Both love you -- I love you too

But I don't really see, why can't we go on as three



You are afraid, embarrased too, no one has ever in your sweet short life child

Said such a thing to you

Your mother's ghost stands at you shoulder

Got a face like ice -- just a little colder

Saying you can not do that it breaks all the rules

You learned in school

But I don't really see, why can't we go on as mmm three



You know we love each other it's plain to see

There's just one answer comes to me

Sister lovers -- some of you must know about water brothers

And in time maybe others

So you see what we can do

Is to try something new - that is if you're crazy too

But I don't really see, why can't we go on as three
