Its unique division to se...
[Part 1]
[Verse 1]
It's getting to the point where I'm no fun anymore
I am sorry
Sometimes it hurts so badly, I must cry out loud
"I am lonely"
[Chorus]
I am yours, you are mine
You are what you are
You make it hard
[Verse 2]
Remember what we've said and done and felt about each other
Oh babe, have mercy
Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now
I am not dreaming
[Chorus]
I am yours, you are mine
You are what you are
You make it hard
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
Tearing yourself away from me now--you are free
And I am crying
This does not mean I don't love you--I do, that's forever
Yes and for always
[Chorus]
I am yours, you are mine
You are what you are
You make it hard
[Verse 4]
Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret
Are you still listening?
Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart
And I love you
[Chorus]
I am yours, you are mine
You are what you are
You make it hard
And you make it hard
And you make it hard
And you make it hard
[Part 2]
[Verse 5]
Friday evening, Sunday in the afternoon
What have you got to lose?
Tuesday morning, please be gone, I'm tired of you
What have you got to lose?
[Bridge]
Can I tell it like it is? (help me, I'm suffering)
Listen to me, baby
It's my heart that's suffering, it's a-dying (help me, I'm suffering)
And that's what I have to lose
[Verse 6]
I've got an answer
I'm going to fly away
What have I got to lose?
Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays?
What have you got to lose?
[Instrumental Break]
[Part 3]
[Verse 7]
Chestnut brown canary
Ruby throated sparrow
Sing the song, don't be long
Thrill me to the marrow
[Verse 8]
Voices of the angels
Ring around the moonlight
Asking me, said she so free
"How can you catch the sparrow?"
[Verse 9]
Lacy, lilting, leery
Losing love, lamenting
Change my life, make it right
Be my lady
[Part 4]

Suite: Judy Blue Eyes was written by Stephen Stills.
Suite: Judy Blue Eyes was produced by Stephen Stills & Graham Nash & David Crosby.
Crosby, Stills & Nash released Suite: Judy Blue Eyes on Thu May 29 1969.
From Nash’s 2013 autobiography, Wild Tales:
We realized the most important track would be the opening number, because it would set the tone for the rest of the album. It’s the track where you can’t take the needle off the record after you’ve heard it. And we had one. Man, did we have one.
