Uriah Heep Album

[No lyrics]

Greater than to face it, give me your money.
Make my life sunny for a day.
Road that leads to nowhere, please stop your crying.
I ain't fit for dying this way.
Go steal another with your eye.
Go try some other heartless lie.
Now I have hope of speaking, bring back the moon.
Don't play your silly games with me.
Oh what a waste of daydream. What is your need?
I'm gonna bleed until you pay.
You've lost all sign of your direction.
You're only looking for the next one.
The next one to kill.
Ashes of destruction spread out so far.
Blackened nurses crying over me.
See a one time city, now just a scar.
Tears of the flower man fill the sea.
Give me a chance to fly away.
There's nothing here for me today.
Today.
Simon and the bullet freak.
(Repeat and Fade)

With my head held low
I know the reason I'm dreaming
It's really been fun
But where is there left to go
Save to give my life a new meaning

And if by chance
You'd come my way
I'll have to say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love

How was I to know
Your heart was unsatisfied
When you never troubled to tell me
No wish that you made to me
Ever was denied
I played it just the way
That it should be

But then you turned
And walked away
I have to say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love

Here am I, give me love

I imagine I must sit here
Till the winter comes
And just watch the days
Growing shorter
To gather in dust won't go
Till my thinking's done
And I walk from this troubled water

By then my need won't be so bad
And I'll gladly say
Here am I, give me love
Here am I, give me love ...

When you look insideMy magic lanternAll the world is yet unseenTry to gaze intoThe yellow glowingTo get a reflection of me
In a land of make believe and magicYou can be just anything you feelYou think that what you're in is a dreamBut know that the lantern is viewing
View the magic lanternTake a trip around the worldView the magic lanternThere's a thousandMysteries unfurledAnd I know one of them

I remember your faceCan't remember the placeHere on our ownLiving alone
You can dream thatYou're a man of powerReady to be happy with your goldWithout love your mind is going sourMoney's no good when you're old
View the magic lanternYou can have the sky aboveYeah, the magic lanternYou'll buy everything but loveEverything but love

Thought of no tomorrow
The pain, tears and sorrow
And you never told me why
The way you cheated
And mistreated
You could never tell me why

But I'm gonna find out
I'm gonna find out
What's been messing up your mind
Messing up your mind

Is there any true reason
Or anything I can explain
Can't we talk about it baby
Get together again
You see I have the feeling
That this isn't the end
And I feel it knowing
On you I depend

I'm gonna find out
Yeah, I'm gonna find out
What has been
Messing up your mind

Perhaps it's best for us
To stay together
And try to live our lives as one
And maybe we will find
We're still together
To watch the setting of the sun

Hey girl, you're the one
That got me started
And I bet you'll be
The one to get us parted
In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Now everybody's had their fun

How I'm wishing
We could live together
Ooh, but the answer
In your eyes is never
In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Everybody's had their fun

Well, you and me
And we know what we're saying
To the rest of them
It's a game we're playing
In the beginning, in the beginning
We were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Everybody else will come

How I'm wishing
We could live together
Ooh, but the answer
In your eyes is never, never
In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one


In the beginning, in the beginning
Or the mother of my son

In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Everybody had their fun

How I'm wishing
We could live together
But the answer in your eyes is never
In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Everybody had their fun

You and me
And we know what we're saying
To the rest of them
It's a game we're playing
In the beginning, in the beginning
We were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Or the mother of my son

In the beginning, in the beginning
You were the only one
In the beginning, in the beginning
Everybody had their fun

Like astranaza
Astranaza ...

Will I never see againThe smiling faces of my friendsCould it be they've gone completelyAnd though thoughts will lingerSweetly in my heart
May I hear once moreThe bird calls my nameMay I be permitted just one friendTo share my game
The one who doesn't give a damnFor what I seem to beAnd really cares for what I am andWhat's within my heart
I believe the sun will shineAnd I know that given timeThe leaves will blow tumble andCry upon the autumn stone below
And my heart grows tired each dayAs the sun grow coldWeary uninspired each dayTil the story is told

You gave your love to oneWho only wantsWhat you seem to beAnd doesn't really care for you orWhat's within your heart
On my grave lay one black roseDo this for me but don't supposeBecause I'm gone, my soul is deadFor I'll be here in spiritAnd our love once more
There must be a heart somewhereIn need of the love I haveThat will reach out in sincerety andTake my life in hand
Then I'll know it's not some oneWho wants just what I seem to beThe one who caresFor what I am andWhat's within my heart
What's within my heart ...

So you think
You found a way of living
That prevents
You losing any sleep
Well, my friend
Take this that I'm giving
It's your piece of mind
You oughta keep

You'll run into trouble for sure
By living behind a locked door

Will you run the risk
Of being taunted
By doing what you wanna do
Or do you prefer to have
Your whole life haunted
By the ones who
Choose to care for you

Beware of their motives my friend
LyricsTake care
You're still there at the end

Watch out for winter
It'll bite you with cold
Black spirits trying hard
To bribe you with gold

Would you steal a nickel
from a blind man
Well, right now
I do believe you would
It's not the thought of you
Doing it that hurts me
It's the mind behind it
What's no good

If this is your way
I don't wanna know
It's only so far I can go

I won't go no further
Not for you or anyone
I have my own ideas on
What should be done

What should be done

Well, the very first time
I saw you darling
Not one single word
Would come to my lips

Yes, the very first time
I saw you darling
Not one single word
Would come to my lips

You see, I was so afraid
You wouldn't love me
I wanna tell you right now
I was frightened right down
To my fingertips

So baby, when you went away
That unlucky day last September
I was like a little lost boy
In the wilderness
Baby baby baby ...
LyricsWhen you went away
I was like a little lost boy
In the wilderness

And I've just been sitting here
Thinking of everybody
I've ever known
Well, you know
I still love you the best
Yeah, the best

Oh, I want you babe
I want you all to myself
And now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that I'm gonna love you
Come with me and I will show you
In a while I'll get to know you

Oh, you know I needed you woman
I needed you, I needed you
Every day and night, right
Now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that I'm gonna love you
Come with me and I will show you
In a while I'll get to know you
Yeah, yeah, oh

Well, you know what
The secret is I guess
And you think you know
Who your lover's wife is

So you better stop
That thing you're doing
Baby, you¡®re driving me, driving me
Driving me to my ruins
But i, I want you babe


When I was a young man
Always trying to say hello babe
But you'd never know
You live in want
Never knowing that I existed
Till my mind was twisted
I was always trying, sometimes crying
Oh, I needed you, needed you
Needed you ...

Stop that thing that you're doing
Baby, you¡®re driving me, driving me
Driving me to my ruins
Oh, I want you babe

I needed you, I needed you
Every single day
Of my entire life
And everytime I tried
Someone else would come along
There it went again

But now and then
I'm gonna hold you
Tell you that I'm gonna love you
Come with me and I will show you
In a while I'll get to know you
You and me we're gonna make it
Come with me, we mustn't break it

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...

Slippin' away, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' for night to fall
Girl in a dream, sittin' on a pillow
This is the night
We're going to the celebrity ball

Satin and lace, isn't it a pity
Didn't find time to call
Ready or not
Gonna make it to the city
This is the night
We're going to the celebrity ball

Dress up tonight, why be lonely
You'll stay at home
And you'll be alone


So why be lonely

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...

Sittin' alone, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' to climb the wall
Maybe tonight
Wherever your dream goes
Woman alive
We're going to the celebrity ball

Dress up tonight, why be lonely
You'll stay at home
And you'll be alone
So why be lonely

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music ...

Everyone said that you'd always
Been left but you got there
Here we are now when
The rest of the show are not there
Nobody knows by the look of
Your clothes you're a schoolgirl
Who would've guessed
By the way that you're dressed
You're a schoolgirl

You said on my lap that
I wasn't the right kind of person
What I wanna know is that
Who in the show I am worse than
Who would've guessed
By the way that you're dressed
You're a schoolgirl
Nobody knows by the look of
Your clothes you're a schoolgirl
Oh, schoolgirl

Looking for something
That you can't have ...

You said on my lap that


I wasn't the right kind of person
What I wanna know is that
Who in the show I am worse than
But who would've guessed
By the way that you're dressed
You're a schoolgirl
And nobody knows by the look of
Your clothes you're a schoolgirl
Oh, schoolgirl

Looking for something
That you can't have ...

Listen!
Everyone said that you'd always
Been left but you got there
Here we are now when
The rest of the show are not there
Nobody knows by the look of
Your clothes you're a schoolgirl
Who would've guessed
By the way that you're dressed
You're a schoolgirl
Oh, schoolgirl

[No lyrics]

I see you running
Don't know what
You're running from
Nobody's coming
What'd you do that was so wrong

Look back and turn back
Look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just
Look at yourself

If you need assistance
Or if all you need is love
There's no point in hiding
Tell me what you’re frightened of

You've got a friend, just
Look at yourself
Don't be afraid, just
Look at yourself

Grinning demons, smiling sideways
Laughing in my face
Here within my troubled sleep
There’s such a lonely place
Running fast but never moving
I can’t get away
Strange but realistic objects
Making me their prey

Then it’s gone as fast as it came
Evil dream
Changing like the sun turn to rain
It would seem

La la la la la ...

Dining with the gods of beauty
On a distant shore
Tasting fruits of untold sweetness
Never seen before
Dancing stars with crystal voices
LyricsBeckon with their eyes
Unicorn of many colours
Rides to paradise

Then it’s gone as fast as it came
Peaceful scene
Changing like the sun turns to rain
It would seem

La la la la la ...

Sleepless nights that last a lifetime
Crucify my head
Dreams of peace and then disaster
Wish that I were dead
Looking for the end of darkness
Seeking out the day
For escape with speed unthought of
Bearing me away

Then it’s gone as fast as it came
Peaceful scene
Changing like the sun turns to rain
It would seem

La la la la la ...

Come into my dream
