Patricia (demo 1967) - Genesis

Pick me up, put me down

Push me in, turn me round

Switch me on, let me go

I have a mind of my own

In hiding

Far from the city of night

And the factories of truth

I stand upon the mountain

A million miles from my home

And the faces of fear

I have freedom to think

In hiding

I may take off my clothes

That I wear on my face

I float upon a river

A million miles from the plains

That are piercing the clouds

I am lost in the beauty

In hiding

Pick me up, put me down

Push me in, turn me round

Switch me on, let me go

I have a mind of my own

I wish you were here...

In hiding

I lie silent at last

I am free from my past

I walk among the tall trees

This is beauty I know

I am in love with it all

I have freedom to love

In hiding

Pick me up, put me down

Push me in, turn me round

Switch me on, let me go

I have a mind of my own
