Artist/Band: Peter Gabriel
Lyrics for Song: Secret World
Lyrics for Album: Secret World Live [1994]



I stood in this unsheltered place

'Til I could see the face behind the face

All that had gone before had left no trace

Down by the railway siding

In our secret world we were colliding

In all the places we were hiding love

What was it we were thinking of?



So I watch you wash your hair

Underwater, unaware

And the plane flies through the air

Did you think you didn't have to choose it

I alone could win or lose it

In all the places we were hiding love

What was it we were thinking of?



In this house of make-believe

Divided in two, like Adam and Eve

You put out and I recieve

Did you think you didn't have to choose it

I alone could win or lose it

All the places we were hiding love

What was it we were thinking of?



Ah the wheel is turning, spinning 'round and 'round

And the house is crubling but the stairways stand



With no guilt and no shame, no sorrow or blame

Whatever it is, we are all the same



Breaking it up

Shaking it up

Making it up

In our secret world



Seeing things that were not there

On a wing on a prayer

In this state of disrepair

Did you think you didn't have to choose it

I alone could win or lose it

In all the places we were hiding love

What was it we were thinking of?



Shh, listen...



Breaking it up

Shaking it up

Making it up

In our secret world
