Strangers Like Me - Phil Collins

Where are you going I don't mind I've killed my world and I've killed my time So where do I go, what will I see? I see many people coming after me So where are you going to I don't mind If I live too long I'm afraid I'll die So I will follow you wherever you go If your offered hand is still open to me Strangers on this road we are on We are not two, we are one So you've been where I've just come From the land that brings losers on So we will share this road we walk And mind our mouths and beware our talk 'Till peace we find tell you what I'll do All the things I own I will share with you And if I feel tomorrow like I feel today We'll take what we want and give the rest away Strangers on this road we are on We are not two, we are one Holy man and holy priest This love of life makes me weak at my knees And when we get there make your play 'Cause soon I feel you're gonna carry us away In a promised lie you made us believe For many men there is so much grief And my mind is proud but it aches with rage And if I live too long I'm afraid I'll die Strangers on this road we are on We are not two, we are one Strangers on this road we are on We are not two, we are one

Oh, I heard you're out there kissing strangers And going out with friends you said you hated And I know that you know damn well Every night when you're lonely You'll never find me in any of their faces Where was my mind? Got me rushing past all red lights Put myself aside Hoping you would change over time Trade a piece of you for a piece of me Wide awake while you're fast asleep Where was my mind? Where was my mind? Go ahead, find somebody else to keep you warm I won't pick up the pieces when you come undone Oh, I heard you're out there kissing strangers And going out with friends you said you hated And I know that you know damn well Every night when you're lonely You'll never find me in any of their faces Good luck, keep kissing strangers What was it worth? I paid the price for putting you first And what makes it worse Is how you keep dragging me through the dirt Go ahead, find somebody else to keep you warm I won't pick up the pieces when you come undone Oh, I heard you're out there kissing strangers And going out with friends you said you hated And I know that you know damn well Every night when you're lonely You'll never find me in any of their faces Good luck, keep kissing strangers You happy now? Go live another lie 'Cause I won't be waiting for a change of mind Don't call again when all your tears have dried Go live your lie Oh, I know that you know damn well Every night when you're lonely You'll never find me in any of their faces Good luck, keep kissing strangers

You're driving me away, give me a reason to stay I want to be lost in you, but not in this way Don't think you quite understand who you have on your hands How can you not see just how good for you I am? I know that you've been hurt before, that's why you feel so insecure I begged you to let me in, 'cause I only want to be the cure If you don't choose to grow, we ain't ever gonna know Just how good this could be I really hoped that this would go somewhere Complacency is the worst trait to have, are you crazy? You ain't never had, ain't never had a woman like me It is so sad, a man like you could be so lazy Consistency is the gift to give for free, and it is key To ever keep, to ever keep a woman like me All you do is complain about decisions you make How can I help lift you if you refuse to activate the life that you truly want? I know it's hard, but it's not We come from the same place, but you will never give it up It's where they make you feel powerful That's why you think I make you feel small But that's your projection, it's not my rejection I put my heart on the line for the very first time Because you asked me to, and now you've gone and changed your mind But loving you was a breakthrough I saw what my heart can really do Now some other man will get the love I have for you 'Cause you don't care, oh-oh-oh Complacency is the worst trait to have, are you crazy? You ain't never had, ain't never had a woman like me It is so sad, a man like you could be so lazy Consistency is the gift to give for free, and it is key To ever keep, to ever keep a woman like me A woman like me (one more time) Complacency (woman like me) is the worst trait to have (woman like me) Are you crazy? (Woman like me) You ain't never had, ain't never had a woman like me (woman like me) It is so sad, a man like you could be so lazy (woman like me) Consistency is the gift to give for free...
