Phil Collins - Love Police Lyrics

Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll make it out of here
The wind blows 'round my heels, so I stay
I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else
Trying to find somehow to get away

If I asked him nicely, d'you think he's show me how to fly?
'Cause the dust has weighed my wings down and I'm too tired to try

Sometimes I sit here, hearing voices in my head
I try to understand, to make some sense
I wonder if I had to, would I lie to save myself?
A plea of guilty, but self defense

Oh, if I asked him nicely, d'you think he'd show me how?
I'm sure he's out there listening, but he's too tied up right now to try

Try all of my sins
'Cause I, I can't stop now
Just don't leave me behind

Sometimes I lie awake, wondering if I'll get out of here
But the words stick in my throat and I stay
I remember lying there, wishing I could be someone else
Trying to find somehow to get away

If I asked him nicely, d'you think he's show me how to fly?
'Cause the dust has weighed my wings down and I'm too tired to try

Too tired to find, I'm trying somehow get away
To get away, I don't know, yeah
But I've got to get away somehow, somehow
