Afterglow – Seconds Out – Genesis – Paris 1977

Posted by in Listen

Like the dust that settles all around me
I must find a new home,
The ways and holes that used to give me shelter
They’re all as one to me now

Oh but I, I would search everywhere
Just to hear your call
Walk upon stranger roads than this one
In a world I used to know before, I miss you more, Oh, Oh

Than the sun reflecting off my pillow
Bringing the warmth of new life, Oh, Oh, Oh
And the sound that echoed all around me
I caught a glimpse of in the night

Oh, but now, now I’ve lost everything
I give to you, Oh, my soul
The meaning of all that I believed before
Escapes me in this world of none, no thing, no one

I would search everywhere
Just to hear, your call
Walk upon stranger roads than this one
In a world, a world I used to know before, Oh

Now I’ve lost everything
I give to you, oh, my soul
Meaning of all that I believed before
Escapes me in this world of none, I miss you more
