Steam - Peter Gabriel
stand back! ‘said stand back! What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet? They’re on to something, picking up Picking up this heat, this heat {chorus 1:} Give me steam And how you feel can make it real Real as anything you’ve seen Get a life with the dreamer’s dream You know your culture […]
I stood in this sunsheltered place ’til i could see the face behind the face All that had gone before had left no trace Down by the railway siding In our secret world, we were colliding All the places we were hiding love What was it we were thinking of? So i watch you wash […]
Only Us - Peter Gabriel
Only us [x3] It wasn’t in the words that kept sticking in their throats It wasn’t with the angels in their quilted coats These battered wings still kick up dust Seduced by the noise and the bright things that glisten I knew all the time i should shut up and listen And i’m finding my […]

I caught sight of my reflection I caught it in the window I saw the darkness in my heart I saw the signs of my undoing They had been there from the start And the darkness still has work to do The knotted chord’s untying They’re heated and they’re holy Oh they’re sitting there on […]
