Down To Earth Lyrics - Peter Gabriel

Did you think that your feet had been bound 

By what gravity brings to the ground? 

Did you feel you were tricked 

By the future you picked? 

Well, come on down 

All these rules don't apply 

When you're high in the sky 

So come on down 

Come on down 

We're coming down to the ground 

There's no better place to go 

We've got snow up on the mountains 

We've got rivers down below 

We're coming down to the ground 

To hear the birds sing in the trees 

And the land will be looked after 

We send the seeds out in the breeze

Did you think you'd escaped from routine 

By changing the script and the scene? 

Despite all you made of it 

You're always afraid of the change 

You've got a lot on your chest 

Well, you can come as my guest 

So come on down 

Come on down 

We're coming down to the ground 

There's no better place to go 

We've got snow up on the mountains 

We've got rivers down below 

We're coming down to the ground 

We'll hear the birds sing in the trees 

And the land will be looked after 

We send the seeds out in the breeze

Like the fish in the ocean 

We felt at home in the sea 

We learned to live off the good land 

We learned to climb up a tree 

Then we got up on two legs 

But we wanted to fly 

Oh, when we messed up our homeland 

And set sail for the sky 

We're coming down to the ground 

There's no better place to go 

We've got snow upon the mountains 

We got rivers down below 

We're coming down to the ground 

We'll hear the birds sing in the trees 

And the land will be looked after 

We send the seeds out in the breeze 

We're coming down 

Comin' down to earth 

Like babies at birth 

Comin' down to earth 

Redefine your priorities 

These are extraordinary qualities 

We're coming down to the ground 

There's no better place to go 

We've got snow upon the mountains 

We've got rivers down below 

We're coming down to the ground 

We'll hear the birds sing in the trees 

And the land will be looked after 

We send the seeds out in the breeze 

We're coming down to the ground 

There's no better place to go 

We've got snow upon the mountains 

We've got rivers down below 

We're coming down to the ground 

We'll hear the birds sing in the trees 

And the land will be looked after 

We send the seeds out in the breeze 

Redefine your priorities 

These are extraordinary qualities 

To find on earth 

Comin' down, comin' down 

Comin' down, comin' down 

Comin' down, comin' down 

Comin' down, comin' down
