"Laughing" lyrics - DAVID CROSBY

[Intro. (Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar and Pedal Steel Guitar)]

I thought I met a man
Who said he knew a man
Who knew what was going on

I was mistaken
Only another stranger
That I knew

And I thought I had found a light
To guide me through
My night and all this darkness

I was mistaken
Only reflections of a shadow
That I saw

And I thought I'd seen someone
Who seemed at last
To know the truth

I was mistaken
Only a child laughing
In the sun

Ah, ah, ah ...
In the sun

[Instrumental Ending (Pedal Steel Guitar)]
