DownToEarth

Down To Earth - Peter Gabriel

Written by：Thomas Newman

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
