Phil Collins - Inside Out Lyrics

Phil Collins - Inside Out Video

Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out
 
Now everybody keeps on telling me how to be
Everybody tells me do what they say
Ooh I'll help myself it's up to me and no-one else
But till I'm ready just keep out of my way
 
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out
 
Now everybody's got me turning round, up and down
And here I am going out of my mind
But I won't lose sight of all the, the things I'm looking for
They're coming to me and I'm taking what's mine
 
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out
 
I'll play the game
We'll make the same mistakes
It's all the same
If we can give and take
Hold on, hold on, ooh
Hold on, hold on, ooh
 
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out
 
All of my life I've been searching and hanging on
Turn a corner, never know what I'd find
But now I'm back again like I never went away
Ooh let me in I'm through with wasting my time
 
Inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out
Oh inside out, ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out, oh-oh inside out

Phil Collins - That's Just The Way It Is Lyrics

Phil Collins - That's Just The Way It Is Video

All day long he was fighting for you
And he didn't even know your name
Young men come and young men go
But life goes on just the same
 
And I don't know why
Why do we keep holding on
I don't know why
Pretending to be oh so strong
Oh why
Is there something I don't know
Or something very wrong, with you and me
Or maybe
 
That's the way it is, there's nothing I can do,
That's just the way it is.
 
They've been waiting for word to come down
They've been waiting for you night and day
They won't wait any longer for you
It may already be too late
 
And I don't know why...
 
You see the dying, you feel the pain
What have you got to say
If we agree that we can disagree
We could stop all of this today
 
It's been your life for as long as you can remember
But you cannot fight no more
You must want to look your son in the eyes
When he asks you what you did it for
 
'Cos all day long he was fighting for you
And he didn't even know your name
Young men come and young men go
But life goes on just the same
 
I don't know why...

Phil Collins - The Same Moon Lyrics

Phil Collins - The Same Moon Video

When the daylight comes and I look across the room,
I see you're gone.
As the morning breaks and I reach to hold your hand
I can see, see I'm the only one.
Well, your clothes are gone and your bags are packed
But the bed's still warm where you lay
Now I need your love to come shining through
To carry me, come carry me away.
 
If you choose a time, I'll catch the moon
I'll see you there
From wherever I am, wherever you are
We'll find somewhere.
I see the same stars in the same sky
Shining down on you,
I'll be looking up from wherever I am
And it's you I'll see if you're looking too.
 
There'll be days that'll seem much longer,
Some nights will seem so cold,
But I see hope on the horizon
And it's gotta come soon please don't be too long,
Don't be too long.
 
If you choose a time, we can catch the moon
I'll see you there
Whenever it is, from wherever you are
Oh we'll find, yes we'll find somewhere.
Are you looking at the same moon?

Phil Collins - We Fly So Close Lyrics

Phil Collins - We Fly So Close Video

My harbour lights are fading fast
Soon they'll disappear
Alone I sit in darkness
Hoping someone might come near
Though I wait, though I try
No one ever comes
And the feeling that I have flood over me
The river starts to run
 
We fly so close
We fly so close
Sometimes we fly too close
 
Every place you run to, everywhere you turn
There are places that you know you should not go
But some bridges just won't burn
All my life, though I try
I cannot change the past
And the ghosts that come back to haunt you
Make you realise at last
 
We fly so close
We fly so close
Sometimes we fly too close
We fly too close
 
My heart is racing much faster now
Life passes before my eyes
Something's I see, they make me smile
Something's they make me cry
So I look, so I try to find
A lesson I can learn
The passing of time hasn't changed my mind
And the ghosts I know return
 
You know we fly so close
We fly so close
Sometimes we fly too close
We fly too close
 
We fly so close, you and I sometimes
Sometimes we fly so close,
We'll never know how many times
We fly so close
We fly so close

Phil Collins - Find A Way To My Heart Lyrics

Phil Collins - Find A Way To My Heart Video

Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you
From wherever you are, I'll be waiting
Ill keep a place in my heart, you will see it shining through
So find a way to my heart, and I will, I will follow you
 
This journeys not easy for you, I know
If your footsteps get too faint to hear, I'll go
Cos you know, questions are never that easy
And never the same
You have the answer believe me
If you have the faith
 
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you
From wherever you are, I'll be waiting
I'll keep a place in my heart, you will see it shining through
So find a way to my heart, and I will, I will follow you
 
Time may come, and time may go, I know
If you should call out for me, I'll go
But you know, there is a code to be broken
I wrap it around
Without a word being spoken
Without a sound
 
Theres a reason I hide my heart
Out of sight out of mind
And when I find out just who you are
The door will be open for you to..
 
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you
From wherever you are, I'll be waiting
I'll keep a place in my heart, you will see it shining through
So find a way to my heart, and I will, I will follow you
 
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you
From wherever you are, I'll be waiting
I'll keep a place in my heart, you will see it shining through
So find a way to my heart, and I will, I will follow you

Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight Lyrics

Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight Video

I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight?
Oh Lord, oh Lord
 
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before, my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
 
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
 
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord, oh Lord
 
Well, I remember
I remember, don't worry
How could I ever forget?
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
 
But I know the reason why you keep this silence up
No, you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me
 
I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight
Oh Lord, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord
 
I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord
Oh Lord, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord, oh Lord

Phil Collins - Both Sides Of The Story Lyrics

Phil Collins - Both Sides Of The Story Video

'Though we might hate to admit it, there are always two sides to every story...'
 
Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
Where death waits in the darkness with a weapon to cut some stranger down
Sleeping with an empty bottle, he's a sad and an empty hearted man
All he needs is a job, and a little respect, so he can get out while he can
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
A neighbourhood peace is shattered it's the middle of the night
Young faces hide in the shadows, while they watch their mother and father fight
He says she's been unfaithful, she says her love for him has gone
And the brother shrugs to his sister and says looks like it's just us from now on
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'til you hear both sides
 
Here we are all gathered in what seems to be the centre of the storm
Neighbours once friendly now stand each side of the line that has been drawn
They've been fighting here for years, but now there's killing on the streets
While small coffins are lined up sadly, now united in defeat
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story
 
And the lights are all on, the world is watching now
People looking for truth, we must not fail them now
Be sure, before we close our eyes
Don't walk away from here
'til you see both sides
 
White man turns the corner, finds himself within a different world
Ghetto kid grabs his shoulder, throws him up against the wall
He says would you respect me if I didn't have this gun
'cos without it, I don't get it, and that's why I carry one
 
We always need to hear both sides of the story

Phil Collins - Everyday Lyrics

Phil Collins - Everyday Video

I got lost, couldn't find my way
And I guess there's nothing more to say
Love can make you blind, make you act so strange
But I'm here and here I will stay
 
So everyday I cry (everyday...)
Yes everyday I fall (everyday...)
Do you ever wonder why (everyday...)
Why I love everything about you
 
But everyday I say I'll try
To make my heart be still
'til then every way there is to cry
Ourselves to sleep we will
 
It picked me up, knocked me off my feet
I've got no way to explain
Still I love you, love you, love you but this fire inside
Will never see the light of day
 
So everyday goes by (everyday...)
And everyday I fall (everyday...)
It makes me wonder why (everyday...)
My life's worth nothing without you
 
But everyday I say I'll try
To make my heart be still
'cos every way there is to cry,
Ourselves to sleep, we will
 
You'll never know, no, no, no, no, no
You'll never know just how close we were
You'll never know, no, no, no, no, no
You'll never know
No you'll never see
 
The book closes and we try to forget
But I know that things won't change
How we feel, how life goes on
And that seems so strange
 
And so the light fades away (everyday...)
Try, try, try as I may (everyday...)
I can't stop thinking about you
It seems my life's worth nothing without you
 
But everyday I say I'll try
To make my heart be still
'til then every way there is to cry,
Ourselves to sleep, we will
 
Everyday, everyday you know I try so hard
Everyday, everyday it gets a little harder
 
(repeat...)
