Compass Lyrics - Singles - David Crosby

I have wasted ten years in a [unverified] blind-fold 

Ten-fold more than I've invested now in sight 

I have traveled beveled mirrors in a fly crawl 

Losing the reflection of a fight 

But like a compass seeking North 

There lives in me a still sure spirit part 

Clouds of doubt are cut asunder 

By the lightning and the thunder 

Shining from the compass of my heart 

I have flown the frantic flight of the bat-wing 

And only known the dark because of that 

I have seized death's door-handle 

Like a fish out of the water 

Waiting, waiting for the mercy of the cat

But like a compass seeking North 

There lives in me a still sure spirit part 

Clouds of doubt are cut asunder 

By the lightning and the thunder 

Shining from the compass of my heart
