Lyrics Peter Gabriel

Peter Gabriel

That Voice Again

1. I want to be with you,

I want to be clear.

But each time I try,

It's the voice I hear.

I hear that voice a-gain.

*: I'm listening to the conversation,

Judge and jury in my head.

It's colouring everything,

All we did and said.

Cm

And still I hear that,

Sharp tongue talking,

Talking tangled words.

I can sense the danger,

Just listen to the wind.

2. I want you close,

I want you near,

I can't help but listen,

But I don't want to hear.

Hear that voice a-gain.

I want to be with you,

I want to be clear.

But each time I try,

It's the voice I hear.

I hear that voice a-gain.

*2: I'm hearing right, and wrong so clearly,

There must be more than this.

It's only in uncertainty,

That we're naked and alive.

I hear it through,

The rattle of a streetcar,

Hear it through, the things you said,

I can get so scared,

Listen to the wind.

Eb B (8x)

3. I want you close,

I want you near,

I can't help but listen,

But I don't want to hear.

Hear that voice a-gain.

X: What I carry in my heart,

Brings us so close,

Or so far a-part.

Only love can make love...

4. I want to be with you,

I want to be clear.

But each time I try,

It's the voice I hear.

I hear that voice a-gain.

I want to be with you,

I want to be clear.

But each time I try,

It's the voice I hear.

I hear that voice a-gain.
