Thru These Walls

Phil Collins · Hello, I Must Be Going ! [1982]

I can hear through these walls

I can hear it when they're fooling around

I can hear through these walls

And I hear evey sigh, every sound

I can hear through these walls

In the dark with the shades pulled down



Every word that they say

Every move they make

Feels it's coming my way

My favorite moment

Putting the glass up, next to the wall

Imagination

Though I see nothing, I hear it all

Putting my sign up

Do not disturb me, speak or shout

Inside out

Oh and my clothes are all layed out



I can see through my windows,

I can see the girls and the boys

I can see through my windows, and I can imagine the noise

I can see through my windows

I can see them playing with toys



Oh I hope, it won't end

Oo if I promise not to touch

Just be a friend

Life is so lonely

And I don't get high off, just being me

I like pretending



Wanting to touch them, wanting to see

It's only normal

Creeping behind you

Now don't shout, cos it's alright

They keep the windows locked and the door shut tight



Ooh I'm feeling like I'm locked in a cage

No way i, no way out

Oh and it gets so lonely

Am I really asking a lot

Just to reach out and touch somebody



'cause when I look through my windows, or open my door

I can feel it all arund me

And I can hear through these walls

I can hear it when they're fooling around

I can hear through these walls

I her every sihg, every sound

I can hear throuh these walls

In the dark with the shades pulled down



And every word that they say

Every move they make,

Feels it's coming my way.

oh yeah

oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah
