Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time (1)__________ still
Eagle (2)________ out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing, (3)____________________ (4)__________ nerve
I had to listen, had no choice
I did not (5)______________ the information
Just had to trust imagination
My (6)__________ (7)__________ boom, boom, boom
"Son," he said, "grab your things
I've come to (8)________ you home"
To keep in silence, I resigned
My friends (9)__________ think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would (10)________ be shut
So I went from day to day
Though my life was in a rut
Till I thought of what I'd say
Which (11)____________________ I (12)____________ cut
I was (13)______________ part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey," he said, "Grab your things
I've (14)________ to (15)________ you home"
Yeah, back home
When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I (16)________ to be
And liberty, she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by (17)__________ silhouette
Who (18)__________ their eyes but still can see
No one (19)____________ them etiquette
I (20)________ (21)________ another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the (22)__________ on my (23)________ meant
My heart (24)__________ boom, boom, boom
"Hey," I said, "You can (25)________ my things
They've come to take me home"
I could see the city light
