Peter Gabriel - Don’t Leave lyrics

Saw a group of people forming
Around a figure lying down
Someone runs to make a phone call
And the man kneels on the ground
The man kneels on the ground
There's a tightening in my chest
I know that I'm drawn in
Oh God let it not be you

Don't leave us don't leave like this
Don't leave me here again
I'm not quitting on you no one else
You're not quitting on us no running out
The colour in your shirt is darkening
Against the paleness of your skin
I remember how you held the goldfish
Swimming around in a plastic bag
Swimming around in a plastic bag
You held it up so high in
The bright lights of the fair
It slipped and fell we looked everywhere

Don't leave us
(your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
Don't leave like this
(your heart is strong, hold on)
Don't leave me here again
(I feel your pulse, in your hand)
I'm not quitting on you there's no one else
You're not quitting on us there's no way out
No way out

Don't leave us don't leave like this
Don't leave me here again
(I feel your pulse, in your hand)
I'm not quitting on you there's no one else
You're not quitting on us no running away
No way out
