Philip David Charles Collins LVO(born 30 January 1951) is an English
drummer, singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, and actor.
He was the drummer and singer of the rock band Genesis, and is also a solo
artist. Between 1982 and 1989, Collins scored three UK and seven
US number-one singles in his solo career. When his work with Genesis, his work with other
artists, as well as his solo career is totalled, Collins had more US Top 40
singles than any other artist during the 1980s. His most successful singles
from the period include "In the Air Tonight", "Against All Odds
(Take a Look at Me Now)", "One More Night", "Sussudio",
"Two Hearts" and "Another Day in Paradise".
Born and raised in west
London, Collins played drums from the age of five and completed drama school
training, which secured him various roles as a child actor. He then pursued a music career, joining Genesis
in 1970 as their drummer and becoming lead singer in 1975 following the
departure of Peter Gabriel. Collins began a solo career in the 1980s, initially
inspired by his marital breakdown and love of soul music, releasing a series of
successful albums, including Face Value(1981), No Jacket Required(1985), and ...But
Seriously (1989). Collins became "one of the most successful pop and adult
contemporary singers of the '80s and beyond". He also became known for a
distinctive gated reverb drum sound on many of his recordings. In 1996, Collins
left Genesis to focus on solo work, but returned for their Turn It On Again
Tour in 2007. Following a five-year retirement to focus on his family life, Collins
released an autobiography and began his Not Dead Yet Tour, which runs from June
2017 until June 2019.
Come stop your crying
It'll be all right
Just take my hand
Hold it tight
I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry
For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always
Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
What they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all
And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
To have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know
When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together
'Cause you'll be in my heart
Believe me, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Oh, you'll be in my heart
(You'll be here in my heart)
No matter what they say
(I'll be with you)
You'll be here in my heart, always
(I'll be there always)
Always
I'll be with you
I'll be there for you always
Always and always
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
I'll be there always.
