Long Long Way To Go - Phil Collins

Long Long Way To Go

 

While I sit here trying to think of things to say

Someone lies bleeding in a field somewhere

So it would seem we've still got a long, long way to go

I've seen all I wanna see today

 

While I sit here trying to move you anyway I can

Someone's son lies dead in a gutter somewhere

And it would seem that we've got a long, long way to go

But I can't take it anymore

 

Turn it off if you want to

Switch it off, it will go away

Turn it off if you want to

Switch it off or look away

 

While I sit, and we talk and talk, and we talk some more

Someone's loved one's heart stops beating in a street somewhere

So it would seem we've still got a long, long way to go, I know

I've heard all I wanna hear today

 

Turn it off if you want to (turn it off if you want to)

Switch it off it will go away (switch it off it will go away)

Turn it off if you want to (turn it off if you want to)

Switch it off or look away (switch it off or look away)

 

Switch it off

Turn it off
