Another Time lyrics - Phil Collins
Lying awake
I look out my window
Wondering to myself
If this madness will ever seize
Oh but I see a light
I see a crack of hope
And I close my eyes
They can't tear this love apart
Though they try
Should we believe in the things they say?
Oh, but how would they know
'Cause in another time another place
It might have been so different
Oh, we set aside the world
We'll laugh, we'll show them all
If we can float across the stream
Just smile and float across the stream
We'll see it all pass us by
You know what?
They don't know
'Cause in another time, in another time, another place
It might have been so different
Oh, but here we are
And here we'll stay
We'll set aside the world
We can float across the stream
We can float across the stream
Find the path we want
I know we will, I know we will
Find the path we want
Reach across the hill and
Reach across the hill
We gonna go believe me we gonna go
We gonna make it
We gonna make it
'Cause nothing can stop us now
No, no, nothing can stop us now
We gonna make it
Yes, we gonna make it, girl
Because nothing can come between us
Not now, nothing can come between us
We try so hard
We can do it
We can do it
We can do it if we want
We can do it, girl
We can do it
We're gonna cross the stream
Find the path we want
Lying awake
I look out my window
Wondering to myself
Will this madness ever seize
Oh, but I see a light
I see a crack of hope
And I close my eyes
I close my eyes
Nothing can come between us now
We close our eyes
Close our eyes
Crystal Clear lyrics - Phil Collins
If you fall I will pick you up
Brush you down and wipe away your tears
When it seems that there's no way out
I'll hold you tight. And scare away your fears
Through the fire and through the rain
One thing's crystal clear
Just remember I'll be here, if you turn around
There will be times when the shadows fall
But I'll be there to guide you through the dark
Imagine the sun is in your eyes
I'll be your shade until the sunset stops
Even though the snow is falling
One thing's crystal clear
Just remember I'll be here, if you turn around
I'll be your castle in the sky
I'll be your comfort, child
I will be your shield, your fan faith trumpeter
Through the storm clouds and the thunder
One thing's crystal clear
Just remember I'll be here, if you turn around
There could be times, much like this
When all you see is way beyond your reach
All years [?] you can't find the door
I'll be there for you. Sleeping at your feet
Through the mist and through the rain
One thing's crystal clear
If you need me I'll be here, if you turn around
Just remember I'll be here, if you turn around
Hey Now Sunshine lyrics - Phil Collins
Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine
Running at the door, she stops to brush her hair
Glancing up and down at her reflection
Did she look away, just in case he looked away?
She'd thought of some excuse for conversation
She knew that he was cure, she seen him yesterday
Talking and laughing with his sister
How long was he staying, would he still be there
She satisfied herself with this, that you should only stare
Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine
All the night before his man was everywhere
But she didn't know exactly what they call him
Inventing stories to pass away the time
Until she find a courage to confront him
Managing to mention him in everything she said
She knew she never felt like this before
How long was he staying, would he still be there
She satisfied herself with this, that you should only stare
Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine
In a second her heart was broken
She couldn't believe her eyes
Her pulse was beating faster every minute
Looking out the window, the car was driving off
His holiday was over, the romance with it
Running out the door, tears in her eyes
She didn't know what to say or what to do
Did he leave an address, will he be back next year?
Slowly the sunshine started broking through...
Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine...
High Flying Angel lyrics - Phil Collins
While the city starts to sleep
She's watching over you
Smoke hangs on the downtown skyline
Moon pushes through
But some people's on fire tonight
Wind rushing round their feet
Someone's gonna sleep well tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly here tonight
It's a tribal thing we're seeing
War paint on the face
A question of territory, pride and space
People strutting and feathers flying
It's a sorry scene
Someone's sleeping well tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly here tonight
Brother, my brother
Don't let me down again
Mother oh mother
Wipe away your tears again
High flying bird embraced him
Held him to her breast
Soft feathers brushed his face
Finally came to rest
Gently rocking him to and fro
He quietly went to sleep
Someone's found a place of peace tonight
Word is on the street
So high flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly away tonight
High flyer, high flyer
Fly high tonight
Fly angel, fly higher
Fly safe tonight
It's Only Loving (Demo) lyrics - Phil Collins
It's only loving, in all its strangest ways
Listen up, it's only loving, no need to run away
Oh it's only loving, a search for higher ground
It's only loving, and only love can turn you around
Me, not be good. Me, not be right
Me, not be black. Me, not be white
Me, not be seen. Me, not be near
And what you're feeling may not be clear
Some people, they say, you got to be stronger
But don't you buy it
Look to yourself, let your heart be your guide
Why don't you try it?
The moon, it may fall. The mountains may crumble
No doubt about it
Oceans may rise. The mighty will tumble
But if I got you, I don't mind
It's only loving, in all its strangest ways
Listen up, it's only loving, no need to run away
Oh it's only loving, a search for higher ground
It's only loving, and only love can turn you around
Me, not be old. Me, not be new
Me, not be me. Me, not be you
Me, not before. Me, not be late
When evil come, will you wait?
Some people dream and I lost belief for the moment
But don't you buy it
Be true to yourself. Just follow your instincts
Why don't you try it?
If you stand tall, all over the round you were running
No doubt about it
These stars they may fall, the tide may be turning
But if I got you, then I don't mind
It's only loving, in all its strangest ways
Oh I know, it's only loving, no need to run away
Oh it's only loving, a search for higher ground
It's only loving, and only love can turn you around
It's only loving, in all its strangest ways
Oh I know, it's only loving, no need to run away
Oh it's only loving, a search for higher ground
It's only loving, and only love can turn you around
It's only loving, in all its strangest ways
Oh I know, it's only loving
Separate Lives lyrics - Phil Collins (feat. Marilyn Martin)
You called me from the room in your hotel
All full of romance for someone that you met
And telling me how sorry you were, leaving so soon
And that you miss me sometimes when you're alone in your room
Do I feel lonely too?
You have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
I can't go on just holding on to times
Now that we're living separate lives
Well I held on to let you go
And if you lost your love for me, well you never let it show
There was no way to compromise
So now we're living (living)
Separate lives
Ooh, it's so typical, love leads to isolation
So you build that wall (build that wall)
Yes, you build that wall (build that wall)
And you make it stronger
Well you have no right to ask me how I feel
You have no right to speak to me so kind
Some day I might (I might) find myself looking in your eyes
But for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Yes for now, we'll go on living separate lives
Separate lives
TV Story lyrics - Phil Collins
Simpson family hardly spoke
With seven kids, it wasn't a joke
Just meeting at night on the sofa
All trying to watch TV
Tucked away in North West Three
Car in the garage, but dad lost the key
So no-one leaves, not even for school
Place is a mess, but the game shows are cool
Someday, they'll get a life
Put away the remote control
Smell the roses 'fore you get old
Hey you, get a life
Turn it off and throw it away
Wake up and walk away
'Cause grandma, granddad, remember the days
Before the one-eyed monster came
Nobody listens as they say all this
Cause everybody's glued
Lunch and dinner in front of the box
Nobody moves, if somebody knocks
Nobody ever hears the phone
Conversation's a memory
Someday, they'll get a life
With the remote control in the bin
Wave to the world you're living in
One day, they'll get a life
But at the moment, it's out of their reach
A life of luxury on the beach
One fine day, a challenge was thrown
By a man at the door in an Escort
"All this could be yours" he said with a grin
Your dream, complete with passport
Challenge was to see, if they could change
TV dinners were all that remained
The men from the game show took the set
Could they survive without it?
Well, mum and dad learned to laugh again
Kids went out and made some friends
All because of the empty space
Standing in the corner
Hey now, they've got a life
Remote control's nowhere to be seen
That's made 'em the dishes clean
Oh yeah, it's a brand new life
So go put on your dancing shoes
Shout it out and spread the news
Oh yeah, it's a brand new life
(Get a brand new life!)
It's out there somewhere
(Don't just settle for second best!)
Oh yeah, a brand new life
(Call now!)
Just waiting for you someplace somewhere
(All this could be yours and more!)
Oh yeah, it's a brand new life
(All you have to do is survive for it!)
It's out there somewhere
(Don't just sit there now!)
Oh yeah, a brand new life
(Get 'em one, just go get 'em one!)
Just waiting for you someplace somewhere
(Apply now! Follow me...)
