| | | Artist: | Peter Gabriel |
| | Album: | Peter Gabriel (1977 | | Track: | Solsbury Hill | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 86 | | | | Lyrics: | Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood
still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard
a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe
the information
I just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son,"
he said "Grab your things,
I've come to take you home."
To keepin' silence I
resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would
soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Tho' my life was in a rut
"Till I thought of
what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked
right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" he said "Grab your
things
I've come to take you home."
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where
I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty
silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No on taught them etiquette
I will
show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face
meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
they've
come to take me home." | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
