I held the book so tightly in my hands,

I saw your picture, heard you call my name

There was something strange, I could not look away

I wanted to be there, I wanted to go

You gave me no warning

You gave no reason

But I was with you

Right by your side

Just give me the strength, and I will help you

And they can try their hardest, cos they don't frighten me

It is written in the book

It is hotter than I've known before, but I feel so cold, and I don't

know why

But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm

Then I really believe, you could make it right

Ooh the time has come now

We must show our feelings

But I'm looking right through you

And your heart is empty

Whatever happened to you it's too late to change now

There's nowhere you can run to, no place to hide

Ah you let me down!

...but wait a minute, I don't understand

It's getting stronger, so grab my hand

Don't wanna leave you, don't wanna go

But I'm losing all control

Can't you see me? I'm slipping away

I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here

It is written in the book

Oh so many times since then I've read those words

Just waiting to see you, can you see me?

I first heard this several years ago on a tape a friend made for me. ...Oh, what a shock for someone so used to the *Face Value* version...

If a person somehow never heard Genesis up until now, one could play this incredible work of art for that person, and he or she could hear what makes this band so great, all at once . . .

What a tremendous album - the last of the true Genesis ones - it will stand the test of time like Bowies Hunky Dory and Floyd's Wish you were Here. - a classic

It was the first music cassette I listened to when I bought ont of the first "walkman" by Sony in 1980 or 1981... Very good memories. I saw the band in september 1982 in Geneva and had the privilege to see the sound check around 5 o'clock... It was the most amazing musical experience I ever lived...

And to think this album lost out to "Off The Wall" at the '81 Grammys...
