My Body Is A Cage Lyrics - Scratch My Back - Peter Gabriel

My body is a cage 

That keeps me from dancing with the one I love 

But my mind holds the key 

My body is a cage 

That keeps me from dancing with the one I love 

But my mind holds the key 

I'm standing on a stage 

Of fear and self doubt 

It's a hollow play 

But they'll clap anyway 

My body is a cage 

That keeps me from dancing with the one I love 

But my mind holds the key 

You're standing next to me 

My mind holds the key

I'm living in an age 

That calls darkness light 

Though my language is dead 

Still the shapes fill my head 

I'm living in an age 

Whose name I don't know 

Though the fear keeps me moving 

Still my heart beats so slow 

My body is a cage 

That keeps me from dancing with the one I love 

But my mind holds the key 

You're standing next to me 

My mind holds the key 

My body is a... 

My body is a cage 

We take what we're given 

Just because you've forgotten 

Doesn't mean you're forgiven

I'm living in an age 

That screams my name at night 

But when I get to the doorway 

There's no one in sight 

I'm living in an age 

They laugh when I'm dancing with the one I love 

But my mind holds the key 

You're standing next to me 

My mind holds the key 

Set my spirit free 

Set my spirit free 

Set my body free 

Set my body free 

Set my spirit free 

Set my body free
