Peter Gabriel - Mercedes lyrics

I've been next to you for a lifetime I've been watching you from the start Always trying to keep yourself put together Always needing to fall apart You wanna ride in my mercedes Tonight we'll dance outside along the seashore A quarter moon will paint our shadows on the cold sand You ask me how come we dance Well there is no reason at all I hope that you will burn down this old house And I hope that you will escape right through the front door Turn around when you're safe And talk about what they've done to you Turn around when you're safe And watch this house burn to the ground Oh I hope that you will rise When you talk about what they've done Oh i know you will rise When you watch yourself burn to the ground Oh I hope that you will rise When you talk about what they've done Oh i know you will rise You wanna ride in my mercedes Everyday we are closer and far away Everyday we are closer and far away Oh I hope that you will rise When you talk about what they've done Oh i know you will rise When you watch yourself burn to the ground Oh I hope that you will rise When you talk about what they've done Oh i know you will rise When you watch yourself burn to the ground Oh I hope that you will rise When you talk about what they've done Oh i know you will rise When you watch yourself burn to the ground Oh I know you will rise When you talk about it You will rise, you will rise You will rise
