Genesis - Home By The Sea / Second Home By The Sea (Live) lyrics
[Genesis - Home By The Sea / Second Home By The Sea Live lyrics]
Home by the Sea home by the Sea
Home by the Sea home by the Sea
Creeping up the blind side
Shinning up the wall
Stealing through the dark of night
Climbing through a window
Stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
Something doesn't feel quite right
Help me, someone, let me out of here
'Cause out of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Coming out the woodwork
Through the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but no substance, in the shape of men
Round and down and sideways they go
Adrift without direction
Eyes that hold despair
Then as one, they sigh and they moan
Help us, someone, let us out of here
'Cause living here so long on this Earth
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Sit down, sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Oh whoa
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer
Longer nights of gloom
Waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life
Help us, someone, let us out of here
'Cause living here so long on this Earth
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Sit down, sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you
Sit down, sit down, sit down
'Cause you won't get away, no, with us
You will stay
For the rest of your days, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer
Longer nights of gloom
Just waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Oh oh
Oh
Home by the Sea home by the Sea
Creeping up the blind side
Shinning up the wall
Stealing through the dark of night
Climbing through a window
Stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
Something doesn't feel quite right
Help me, someone, let me out of here
'Cause out of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Coming out the woodwork
Through the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but no substance, in the shape of men
Round and down and sideways they go
Adrift without direction
Eyes that hold despair
Then as one, they sigh and they moan
Help us, someone, let us out of here
'Cause living here so long on this Earth
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Sit down, sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Oh whoa
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer
Longer nights of gloom
Waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life
Help us, someone, let us out of here
'Cause living here so long on this Earth
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea
Sit down, sit down
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you
Sit down, sit down, sit down
'Cause you won't get away, no, with us
You will stay
For the rest of your days, sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer
Longer nights of gloom
Just waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Oh oh
