Domino: In The Glow Of The Night/the Last Domino Lyrics - Genesis

The grey of evening fills the room, 

No need to look outside, 

To see or feel the rain. 

I reach across to touch her, 

But I know that she's not there. 

Rain keeps running down the window pane. 

Time is running out for me. 

Can't you see what you are doing to me? 

Can't you see what you have done? 

As I try to pass another long and sleepless night, 

A hundred crazy voices call my name, 

As I try to pass them by, 

I almost can believe that she is here, 

In the glow of the night.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Do you know what you have done? 

Do you know what you've begun? 

Do you see we shall never be together again? 

All of my life. 

Lonely people, empty rooms, 

Pointless violence, silent tombs. 

Could it be that we shall be together again? 

Sheets of double glazing help to keep outside the night, 

Only foreign city sirens can cut through, 

Nylon sheets and blankets help to minimize the cold. 

But they can't keep out the chilling sounds. 

Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming 

That she is here with me? 

In the glow of the night. 

Do you know what you have done? 

Do you know what you've begun? 

Do you see we shall never be together again? 

Lonely people, empty rooms, 

Pointless violence, silent tombs. 

Could it be that we shall be together again? 

In silence and darkness 

We held each other near that night 

We prayed it would last forever. 

Blood on the windows 

Millions of ordinary people are there 

They gaze at the scenery 

They act as if it is perfectly clear 

Take a look at the mountains 

Take a look at the beautiful river of blood. 

The liquid surrounds me 

I fight to rise from this river of hell 

I stare round about me 

Children are swimming and playing with boats 

Their features are changing 

Their bodies dissolve and I am alone. 

Now see what you've gone and done. 

Now you never did see such a terrible thing 

As was seen last night on T.V. 

Maybe if we're lucky, they will show it again 

Such a terrible thing to see 

There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line 

You've got to go domino. 

Now I'm one with the living and I'm feeling just fine 

I know what I must do 

Play the game of happiness and never let on 

That it only lives on in a song 

There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line 

You've got to go domino. 

Do you know what you have done? 

Do you know what you've begun? 

In silence and darkness 

Hold each other near tonight 

For will it last forever? 

There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line 

You've got to go domino.
