Anthony Edwin "Ant" Phillips (b. 23 December 1951, Chiswick, west London) is an English multi instrumentalist, first known as a founding member of the band Genesis. He played guitar and sang backing vocals until leaving in 1970, following the recording of their second album, Trespass.

Master of Time

 See, the days grown long 
Winter comes upon us 
Like a storm at sea. 
And the will to live  
Seems a little thin sometimes 
When those you love are 
Lost beneath the snowfall. 
  
"Give and you will live", 
Said a man who lived  
In a funny way. 
So we share our cup 
With the thirsty fawn of life 
Who leaves us on the  
Highway without water. 
  
Master of Time, take me back through the years. 
Master of Time, let me try once again 
And I will give more, oh how I'll try, 
And with this, a new life I'll buy. 
  
Hush! The marsh-duck cries, 
Far away, she knows 
That her love will be, 
And she nestles down, 
Sobbing still, she dries her eyes, 
Knowing that the world 
Will cry the rest out. 
  
Where did beauty go? 
Seek it here, there 
But it's slipped away. 
And when they come to lay me down, 
I will take your memory too, 
They'll know that in my final hour, 
I loved you. 
  
Master of Time, take me back through the years. 
Master of Time, let me try once again 
And I will give more, oh how I'll try, 
And with this, a new life I'll buy.
