"For The Love Of Man" lyrics

Neil Young & Crazy Horse Lyrics

"For The Love Of Man"

For the love of man
Who could understand what goes on
What is right and what is wrong
Why the angels cry and the heavens sigh
When a child is born to live
But not like you or I

Let the angels ring the bells
In the holy halls
May they hear the voice that calls to them
For the love of man
Who will understand it's alright
I know it's alright

Down the dusty road
To the forest church
Let me wander there
Let me wonder why
On the ocean wave
To the billowing sky
Let me wander there
Let me wonder why

Let the angels ring the bells
In the holy halls
May they hear the voice that calls to them
For the love of man
Who will understand it's alright
But I wonder why
I wonder why
I wonder why
I wonder why
