Genesis Home By The Sea 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 the 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
Cos 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 with no substance
In the shape of men
Round and down the 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
Cos living here so long undisturbed
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
As we 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
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
Cos living here so long undisturbed
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
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Oh please let us relive our lives in what we tell you

Sit down Sit down
Cos you won't get away
So with us you will stay
For the rest of your days
So sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Please 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
