Peter Gabriel
Solsbury Hill (Secret World Live)
[Verse 1]
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
I had to listen, had no choice
[Chorus]
I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son," he said
"Grab your things, I've come to take you home"
[Verse 2]
To keep in 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
Though my life was in a rut
'Til I thought of what I'd say
Which connection I should cut
[Chorus]
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son," he said
"Grab your things, I've come to take you home"
[Verse 3]
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 one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
[Chorus]
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll show them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Son," he said
"Grab your things, I've come to take you home"
