There must be some misunderstanding
Ooh, there must be some kind of mistake
Cause you left me in the rain for hours
And you were late

Now it's not like me to say the right thing
But you could've called to let me know
Well I checked your number twice, and i don't understand it
Well I went home

Well I'd been waiting for this weekend
I thought that maybe we could see a show
I never dreamed I'd have this feeling
But seeing you is believing
That's why I don't know why
You didn't show up that night

There must be some misunderstanding
Aw listen, there must be some kind of mistake
Cause you left me in the rain for hours
And you were late

Since then I've been running around trying to find you
I went to the places that you always go
Rang your house but got no answer
So jumped in my car, and i went round there
I still don't believe it
He was just leaving

There must be some misunderstanding
Oh there must be some kind of mistake
You know there must be some misunderstanding
Oh there must be some kind of mistake

There must be, there must be, oh oh
Misunderstanding
There must be, there must be, oh oh
Misunderstanding
There must be, there must be, no no
Misunderstanding
There must be, there must be, aw no
Misunderstanding

Misunderstanding, Misunderstanding
There must be, there must be, oh oh
Misunderstanding
There must be, there must be some kind of misunderstanding

You know there must be something, must be something, must be something, must be some, misunderstanding
You know there must be something, must be something, must be something, must be some, misunderstanding
You know there must be something, must be something, must be something, must be some, misunderstanding
You know there must be something, must be something, must be something, must be some, misunderstanding

Genesis

Genesis are an English rock band formed at Charterhouse School, Godalming, Surrey in 1967. The most commercially successful line-up includes keyboardist Tony Banks, guitarist Mike Rutherford and drummer/singer Phil Collins. Other important members were singer Peter Gabriel and guitarist Steve Hackett. The band underwent several significant changes in musical style over its career, from folk music to progressive rock in the 1970s, before moving towards pop at the end of the decade.

Formed by five Charterhouse pupils including Banks, Rutherford, Gabriel and Anthony Phillips, Genesis was named by former pupil Jonathan King who arranged them to record several unsuccessful singles and an album. After splitting with King, the group began touring professionally, signing with Charisma Records. Following the departure of Phillips, Genesis recruited Collins and Hackett and recorded several progressive rock style albums, with live shows centred around Gabriel’s theatrical costumes and performances.

Their discography includes fifteen studio and six live albums, six of which topped the UK chart. They have won numerous awards and nominations, including a Grammy Award for Best Concept Music Video with “Land of Confusion” and inspired a number of tribute bands recreating Genesis shows from various stages of the band’s career. In 2010, Genesis were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their biggest hit to date is Invisible Touch which spent 3 consecutive weeks at #1.
