Song lyrics
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am

Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord

Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up
No, you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you or me

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord

I totally agree He's been in the game longer than bout 17 years and still going strong. Phil Collins is awsome And if you think this song is awsome its not even the peak of his work.

PHIL COLLINS ROCK!!!

Haunting, eviscerating song.

At his concert he invited his brother's childhood friend ( who watched his brother drwon and didnt help him ) he put the spotlight on him and sung this song , thats why he says i was there and i saw you , phil collins was to little to help and his brothers friends let his brother drown, now listen to the song and it makes it so much more emotional

this song isn't about drowning - it's about one of his siblings/relatives getting molested by his uncle.

Eminem has reference to to this song in his song, Stan: "You know that song by phil collins in the air in the night about that guy who could've saved that other guy from drowning but didn't and phil saw it all and at his show he found him"

I had to look into it and I found out that "it's symbolic allegory about Collins' failing marriage to wife Andrea at the time." -www.allmusic.com
