I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Edited on Tue Oct-25-05 09:56 PM by Jersey Devil
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
I’ve been waiting for this moment, 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 the 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
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
And I’ve been waiting for this moment all my life, oh lord, oh lord

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord...

2. You can run...


Written by Alan Parsons and David Pack

I know you're out there
Cuz I can feel ya
Yeah I can feel ya trying to pull me down
I know your kind
You kinda like it
When people tell ya not to come around
Here's looking at ya
Been nice to know ya
I see the lines written on your face
I wish you well
But I gotta tell ya
Ain't nothing human ‘bout the human race

You can run
But you can't look behind you
You can hide
But the truth's gonna find you

Some people fight it like some disease
They carry secrets to an early grave
They try to fake it
While on their knees
Never knowing what they really crave
They got no values
They got no soul
No sense of purpose
Nothing to believe
Call me your friend
Then steal me blind
To me you're nothing but a common thief

You can run
But you can't look behind
You you can hide
But the truth's gonna find you
Holding us within this maze

4. Too bad he didn't get so inspired with these lyrics:
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh, oh...
Gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh, oh...

Goin down goin down like a monkey
ooh, but its alright...

Cuz tonight, tonight, tonight, oh, oh...
Gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight, oh, oh...

My apologies to all Genesis and/or Phil Collins fans, but seriously, what was going on in his head when he wrote these pathetic lyrics??

7. I never listened to the words. I don't. Usually. I cannot believe I didn't
Edited on Wed Oct-26-05 01:13 AM by applegrove
know the song was so angry. Duh!!!!!!!

I knew it was moaning and about loss - I just didn't pay attention. Now I like the song less.

17. It was written as his marriage was going down the tubes, I believe.
Or something like that. One of my favorite songs.

13. 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 your silence up

No you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show
But the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you or me

18. That's just a rumor.
Truth is that it was about his failing marriage.

15. "Another Day in Paradise"
She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
Can't walk but she's trying

Oh think twice...

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cos she didn't fit in there

Oh think twice...

Yeee---HAAAAW!!!

:D :D

I LOVE PHIL COLLINS!

21. I don't much care for him
But I love this song:
***********************************

Well you can tell everyone I'm a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place - I don't care anymore.

You can tell everybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win -
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore

I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play.
'cos I've been talking to the people that you call all your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to an end - they don't care anymore.

And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind -
I don't care anymore
I don't care no more

I don't care what you say - we never played by the same rules anyway.
I won't be there anymore
get out of my way - let me by

I got better things to do with my time

I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore.

Well
I don't care now what you say
'cos everyday I'm feeling fine with myself.
And I don't care now what you say
hey - I'll do alright by myself 'cos I know.

'cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face 'cos you held all the cards -
I don't care anymore.
And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'cos all I want of you is just a let me be -
I don't care anymore
d'you hear I don't care no more

I don't care what you say - I never did believe you much anyway
I won't be there no more
so get out of my way - let me by

I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore.
D'you hear I don't care anymore
I don't care no more.
no more - no more
