After The Dolphin lyrics - Crosby, Stills & Nash

[Intro. (Radio Broadcast + Electric Piano + Synth)]

At the Dolphin the beer flowed like wine
And people were drinking
Over there there were lives on the line
But not at the Dolphin

Across the ocean the world was at war
And bullets were flying
In the air there's a plane headed for
The heart of the Dolphin
It's after the Dolphin

[Instrumental (Synth)]

They were laughing and drinking and carrying on
And then in the blink of an eye they were gone, gone, gone

So was the Dolphin
So was the Dolphin
Gone was the Dolphin

What will become of us all?
Who knows the story?
Will we witness the final fall
Of the hope and the glory?

Blinded by honor they fought eye to eye
Now men without faces rain fire from the sky
When you kill from a distance is anyone to blame?
And the armies of warfare will never be the same again

After the Dolphin
After the Dolphin
After the Dolphin

[Instrumental (Radio Broadcast, Electric Piano, Synth and Electric Guitar)]

After the Dolphin
After the Dolphin
After the Dolphin ...

[Ending (Radio Broadcast)]

  1. Looking for information about the radio broadcast used in this song. Who? When? Great tune. (So, a talented group, in voice, musical arrangement, and guitar string adjustments. (Saw two performances, in Massachusetts, USA) ...Even better when touch of reality is used.
    Paul Simon did the same with his recoding "Silent Night" The contrast with reality, did the same for me, as it did with here.
    Just looking for historical insightfulness. ...Also a enjoy understanding history
