Like No Man I’ve Ever Seen lyrics
by Phil Collins
[JANE] (sung)
This man is not like other men
Like no man I've ever seen
You'll have to meet him to believe it
I know just how you'll be
Oh he defies all gravity
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
Oh, Jane can this be true?
[JANE] (sung)
Like no man I've ever seen
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
My word.
[JANE] (sung)
He seems to fly,
Defying everything
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
No.
[JANE] (sung)
Like something in your dreams
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
Good heavens!
[JANE, & PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
Can this be true?
[PROFESSOR PORTER]
This man he sounds extraordinary!
[JANE] (spoken)
He is, father!
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
I'd lovе to meet him too
[JANE] (spoken)
You shall...
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
Well does hе talk?
Like you or I can?
[JANE] (spoken)
Well...
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
And what do you two do?
[JANE]
I know this, he seems at one with nature
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
That's good.
[JANE] (sung)
Like no man I ever seen
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
Hmm, he sounds quite nice.
[JANE] (sung)
It seems he learned from all around him
They're like his friends you see
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (spoken)
Really?!
[JANE, & PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
Can this be true?
[JANE]
Oh, father, sometimes I wake at night
And see him there
He lightens up the darkness you will see
[PROFESSOR PORTER]
Oh I can see...
Oh daughter what's this I hear?
It seems he fills your heart with joy
I see the symptoms in those eyes
I feel so happy, and proud of you inside...
So we both made our discoveries
[JANE] (spoken)
Yes!
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
Though, I'll keep mine to myself
[JANE] (spoken)
I'm not following you daddy.
[PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
But if my instincts serve correctly,
I may have lost my girl
[JANE] (spoken)
Oh no no no no no!
[JANE, & PROFESSOR PORTER] (sung)
Oh, this is what we've waited for
We always knew one day
This is the link we've both been searching for
It's just a breath away
Can this be true?
Can this be true?
We'll see!
