Genesis - Alien Afternoon Lyrics
Woke up in the morning staggered out of bedThought about getting back again, but went downstairs insteadRead the daily paper have to know the truthSlammed the door as i ran outside, looked at my watch and criedGotta get to work on timeGotta get to work on timeThen the sky turned a deeper blueNot a cloud as the sun shone throughBut all around rain kept falling to the groundThe wind was blowing but the trees didn't make a soundJust another alien afternoonJust another alien afternoonTime that i was leaving while there's still a chanceBefore i start believing in what i see or hearNothing here to keep me, nothing anywhereGotta get out pack my bags before i go insaneGotta get away in timeGotta get away in timeThen the sky turned from blue to greenTook on colours i have never seenThen a sound started ringing in my earsI heard voices but in truth there's nobody thereJust another alien afternoonJust another alien afternoonTo be there back where i belongTo feel again the wind upon my faceTo see again all that i took for grantedAll that i left and everything i knewWe are homeWe are your homeWe are all your homeNot another alien afternoonNever more to go wanderingNever leaving my world behindThere was never a reasonTo leave my heart and my home behindWhere i was born is where i should be nowI would never be lonelyI would never be sad againI wanted to go anywhereI wanted to see how strange it all could beNothing would ever take me away againNever more to go wanderingNever leaving my world behindNo, no, no, noNothing will ever take me away again, away againNo, no, no, no
