GENESIS
- In Limbo Lyrics / with translationsPlease take me away
Far from this place
Leaving me here
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
Take me away
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here I am
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
I - I've conquered time
Where will I go ?
Am I still mine ?
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
Take me away
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here I am
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
Peace - floating in limbo
Limbo - Leading me nowhere
Peace, now without motion
I cry, when will I die ?
God - Where is my soul now ?
My world, please set me free
Peace, now without motion
I cry, when will I die ?
Far from this place
Leaving me here
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
Take me away
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here I am
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
I - I've conquered time
Where will I go ?
Am I still mine ?
Take me away
To the furthest star in the sky
To the deepest cave of the night
Take me away
Voices of love, here I am
In the sad sad world of fear
Take me away
From the power of my ambition
And I'll be happy
Peace - floating in limbo
Limbo - Leading me nowhere
Peace, now without motion
I cry, when will I die ?
God - Where is my soul now ?
My world, please set me free
Peace, now without motion
I cry, when will I die ?
