Genesis - Behind The Lines lyrics

I saw your picture, heard you call my name

There was something strange, I could not look away

I wanted to be there, I wanted to go

You gave me no warning, you gave no reason

But I was with you, right by your side

Just give me the strength and I can help you

They can try their hardest, they don't frighten me

It's written in the book

It's hotter than I've known before

But I feel so cold and I don't know why

But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm

Then I really believe you could make it right

The time has come now, we must show our feelings

But I'm looking right through you and your heart is empty

Whatever happened to you, it's too late to change now

There's nowhere you can run to, no place to hide

Ah, you let me down

...but wait a minute, I don't understand

It's getting stronger, so grab my hand

Don't wanna leave you, don't wanna go

But I'm losing all control

Can't you see me, I'm slipping away

I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here

It's written in the book

Oh, so many times since hten I've read those words

Just waiting to see you, can you see me
