Peter Gabriel - So Much (In-Side Mix) lyrics

So much unfinished business
All sticky with desire
Raking through the empty shells
Of all the rockets we fired

Set the navigation
For the Earth all warm and wet
And as the longing drops away
The compass is reset

Ah, there’s so much to aim for
You can shoot at the sun
But all of it just comes and goes
There’s only so much can be done

Time slips in the mirror
As an old man, I was born
But, I've grown to be a baby
With a halo and a horn

Burn up like a lightning bolt
All gone within a flash
You look around to find a home
Where the asteroid will crash

Ah, there’s so much to live for
So much lеft to give this edition is limited
Thеre’s only so much can be done

Hm hm, hm, hm, hm hm, hm hm

The body stiffens, tires and aches
In it's wrinkled, blotchy skin
With each decade, more camouflage
For the wild eyed child within
Now close your eyes for a moment
Look down and look above
All the warmth inside of you
Comes from those you love

Ah, there’s so much to live for
So much left to give this edition is limited
There’s only so much can be done
So much to aim for shooting up at the sun
But it all comes and goes
There’s only so much can be done
So much can be done only so much can be done
