Peter Gabriel - I Grieve (City of Angels Version) lyrics

[Peter Gabriel - I Grieve City of Angels Version lyrics]

It was only one hour ago
It was all so different
Nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did this flesh and bone
It's just the way that we had tied in
Now there's no-one home

I grieve for you you leave me
So hard to move on still loving what's gone
They say life carries on
Carries on and on and on and on

The news that truly shocks is the empty
Empty page
While the final rattle rocks it's empty
Empty cage and I can't handle this

I grieve for you you leave me
Let it out and move on missing what's gone
They say life carries on
They say life carries on and on and on

Life carries on in the people I meet
In everyone that's out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

Just the car that we ride in
The home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

Did I dream this belief?
Or did I believe this dream?
Now I can find relief i grieve
