There Must Be Some Other Way - Genesis songs lyrics song lyric

You're no longer part of my life
I must remind myself again
Too much has happened to us to cause each other pain
It's over now, there's too much guilt we share
Once there would have been a time for talking and learning

There must be some other way
To get where we have to go
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do
There must be some other way
Please show me another way

Are we no more than parts in a play
Letting other people, strangers say our lines ?
To think it should come to this after all these years
What was mine and what should stay behind
Once there would have been a time of sharing, of caring

There must be some other way
To get where we have to go
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do
There must be some other way
Please show me another way

There's nothing much left to say
We have said it once and said it all again
This time we have gone too far, it could never be the same
It's time to carry on create new lives
Once we promised we would stay together forever

There must be some other way
To get where we have to go
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
Once it would have been so easy to do what we have to do
There must be some other way
Please show me another way
