Genesis - The Window

To Rate
Verse 1
Slowly I stretch out my arms freely
Shadows of night disappear
Rise from the slough of despond, find the pathway
Guiding us forward through pastures of dream day
Days to enjoy, peace I knew once before me
Dawning to dusk on the hills until morning

Chorus
Come see me, take my hand
Come see me in my land

Verse 2
Flying invisibly high, watch me
All on a beautiful sky, I'll be
Clear and serene in the love I've discovered
Long search is over, the soul is uncovered
Resting on joy that abounds without ceasing
Bidding farewell to the fears now decreasing

Chorus
Come see me, take my hand
Come see me in my land

Bridge
High upon a golden crested wave she sits
The little nymphs dance in her hair
The trees all beckon to the sky to bless their empty lives
Horizons come to sip wine there
The veiled mist reveals the wandering ship upon the reef
The albatross flies to the stern
But only Jack Frost saw the kiss
You gave him in return
Verse 3
Crossing the mountains of truth, see them
Soaring majestically high, and then
Stop at the warning light, see it flash brightly
Thunder awakes me; the crashes beside me
Shatters the scene and brings chaos to beauty
Leading us forward where destiny may be

Chorus
Come see me, take my hand
View from another land
Come see me, take my hand
View from another land
Come see me, take my hand
View from another land
Come see me, take my hand
View from another land
Come see me, take my hand
View from another land
Come see me, take my hand

Genesis are an English rock band formed at Charterhouse School, Godalming, Surrey in 1967. The most commercially successful line-up includes keyboardist Tony Banks, guitarist Mike Rutherford and drummer/singer Phil Collins. Other important members were singer Peter Gabriel and guitarist Steve Hackett. The band underwent several significant changes in musical style over its career, from folk music to progressive rock in the 1970s, before moving towards pop at the end of the decade.

Formed by five Charterhouse pupils including Banks, Rutherford, Gabriel and Anthony Phillips, Genesis was named by former pupil Jonathan King who arranged them to record several unsuccessful singles and an album. After splitting with King, the group began touring professionally, signing with Charisma Records. Following the departure of Phillips, Genesis recruited Collins and Hackett and recorded several progressive rock style albums, with live shows centred around Gabriel’s theatrical costumes and performances.

Their discography includes fifteen studio and six live albums, six of which topped the UK chart. They have won numerous awards and nominations, including a Grammy Award for Best Concept Music Video with “Land of Confusion” and inspired a number of tribute bands recreating Genesis shows from various stages of the band’s career. In 2010, Genesis were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their biggest hit to date is Invisible Touch which spent 3 consecutive weeks at #1.

Peter Gabriel was the lead singer of the progressive-rock band from 1967 to 1975. He wanted to spice up the bands performances and so started wearing elaborate makeup and clothing his most famous was the fox mask and red dress which became the cover art for their 1972 album Foxtrot.
