This Is The Picture — текст песни (Peter Gabriel)

excellent birds

flying birds
excellent birds
watch them fly, there they go
falling snow
excellent snow
here it comes. watch it fall

long words
excellent words
I can hear them now

this is the picture, this is the picture
this is the picture, this is the picture

I`m sitting by the window
watching the snow fall
I`m looking out
and I`m moving, turning in time
catching up. moving in
jump up! I can land on my feet. look out!

this is the picture, this is the picture
this is the picture, this is the picture

looking out. watching out
when I see the future I close my eyes
I can see it now

I see pictures of people, rising up
pictures of people, falling down
I see pictures of people
they`re standing on their heads, they`re ready
they`re looking out, look out!
they`re watching out, watch out!
they`re looking out, look out!
they`re watching out, watch out!

I see pictures of people
I see pictures of people
