Chuck's Lament: A Child's Dream

by David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Joe Vitale

From the soundtrack to "Amazing Grace & Chuck"



I think one drop of water in the ocean

Could be the one that sets a wave in motion

That roams around the world



I think one grain of sand upon the beach

Could be the one that lifts you high enough to reach

All around the world



Through the days of endless dreaming

All our lifelong games are played

Watching all the world before us

Waiting for the big parade



You and me, do we leave it to the children?

You and me, what are we leaving what will we be?

You and me, when we're standing and be counted

You and me, do we give it up or let it be?



In my nightmare I am dreaming

All my fears are here with me

I can't wait to find the answer

Face the future and let us be



You and me, do we leave it to the children?

You and me, what are we leaving what will we be?

You and me, when we're standing and be counted

You and me, do we give it up or let it be?



I can't wait to find the answer

Face the future and let us be

I can't wait to find the answer

Face the future and let us be
