Some "Collins, Phil" lyrics
Like China
My mom and daddy both say
I must be crazy to be this infatuated
But I know you know
We got something special never felt before
You get me going just looking at you
And the feeling's not hard to recognise so
Alright I'll come out in the open with it
Will you walk out with me.
Cos you're the first girl I've ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
Cos I know who I am
Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars
You're just like a picture book standing there
But I can't go on
No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way that I do
I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
'Cos I know it's your first time
Your mum and dad don't like me
And they tell me every time I call around to see you
I don't know why
Cos I always straighten my tie and comb my hair
I know your brother thinks that
I'm a limp wristed wimp from the other side of town
I know he's got me wrong
Because I'm really not like that, I'll tell you why
You're the first girl I've ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
'Cos I know who I am
I remember the very first time I held your hand
And that was the last time you were so close to me
But I can't go on
No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way as I do
I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
'Cos I know it's your first time
I know you know and now I want to, I want to tell everybody
I know you know and now I want them all to see...

River So Wide
If we can cross at the place that divides us.
cross the river, the river so wide,
if we can smother the pain that's inside us,
deny the demons that wait by our side,
we can find, find the light
Our nights are filled with the light of the same moon,
we share the comfort of the same stars.
Our days are bright with the light of the same sun,
that don't matter, can't you see what we are,
what we are, what we become?
Keep our sights on the way ahead,
don't look back, it won't help us now.
The storm we left so far behind
seems a dark memory that starts to fade,
but till we see the light we will not be safe.
We all sink or swin in the same ocean,
break our skin and we will bleed
our minutes pass with the same motion,
we face the same danger, we share the same needs,
we're all the same, you and me.
Keep our sights on the way ahead,
don't look back, that won't help us now.
Upstream, the river gets too wide
so we must build that bridge right here,
'cos if we wait we will not reach the other side.
See under that clear blue sky
the winds of change are blowing hard and long,
and they'll not stop to rest 'cos the change is gonna come
Our nights are filled with the light of the same moon,
we share the comfort of the same stars.
Our days are bright with the light of the same sun,
that don't matter, can't you see what we are,
what we are, what we become?
Keep our sights on the way ahead,
don't look back, it won't help us now.
'cos upstream the river gets too wide
and if we don't build that bridge right here, right now,
you know we'll never ever reach the other side.
