Dusk

[Verse 1: Peter Gabriel] See my hand is moving Touching all that's real And once it stroked love's body Now it claws the past [Chorus: Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, John Mayhew, Anthony Phillips & Mike Rutherford] The scent of a flower The colours of the morning Friends to believe in Tears soon forgotten See how the rain Drives away, another day [Verse 2: Peter Gabriel] If a leaf has fallen Does the tree lie broken? And if we draw some water Does the well run dry? [Chorus: Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, John Mayhew, Anthony Phillips & Mike Rutherford] The sigh of a mother The screaming of lovers Like two angry tigers They tear at each other See how for him Lifetime's fears disappear [Flute Solo] [Verse 3: Peter Gabriel] Once a Jesus suffered Heaven could not see him And now my ship is sinking The captain stands alone [Chorus: Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, John Mayhew, Anthony Phillips & Mike Rutherford] A pawn on a chessboard A false move by God will now destroy me But wait, on the horizon A new dawn seems to be rising Never to recall This passerby, born to die
