He was the wizard
Of a thousand kings And I chanced to meet him One night wandering He told me tales And he drank my wine Me and my magic man Kinda feeling fine He had a cloak of gold And eyes of fire And as he spoke I felt a deep desire To free the world Of its fear and pain And help the people To feel free again Why don't we listen to The voices in our hearts 'Cause then I know we'd find We're not so far apart Everybody's got to be happy Everyone should sing For we know the joy of life The peace that love can bring So spoke the wizard In his mountain home The vision of his wisdom Means we'll never be alone And I will dream of my magic night And a million silver stars That guide me with their light 02. Traveller In Time Lyrics by Box, Byron, Kerslake
Every day I have to look to the sun
To see where it was that I have come from I have a feeling that There must be a time When I'll get a chance to go home 'Cause I'm so tired Of being here alone But I'm just a traveller in time Trying so hard to pay for my crime If I could go back The same way I got here And see the people that I once held so near I'd do my best to Find an answer for you But first I must wait till I'm set free And I don't know How long that's gonna be 'Cause I'm a man with A whole lot on his mind Just out there somewhere Travelling in time Travelling in time I've tried for so long to find Some way of helping mankind 03. Easy Livin' Lyrics by Ken Hensley
This is a thing I have
Never known before It's called easy livin' This is a place I've Never seen before And I've been forgiven Easy livin' and I've been forgiven Since you've taken Your place in my heart Somewhere along the lonely road I had tried to find you Day after day on that windy road I had walked behind you Easy livin' and I've been forgiven Since you've taken Your place in my heart Waiting, watching Wishing my whole life away Dreaming, thinking Ready for my happy day And some easy livin' 04. All My Life Lyrics by Box, Byron, Kerslake
I had a little look
For a minute today And I told there was something That I wanted to say Just sitting there glowing With her red light on So I've gotta make fast And it shouldn't take long Maybe she will Maybe she won't We can get it so together If she doesn't say don't I've never ever thought I was looking for a wife But I think I could love her For the rest of my life I only took one 'cause I couldn't take two I wanna make love And it's gotta be you Every little thing that I ever tried to say Is coming out right In my own kinda way Take it, make it It really feels fine She must be Lady Luck If she's gonna be mine I will love you all my life 05. Poetic Justice Lyrics by Ken Hensley
Cold winds and cloudy skies
Turned to sweetness in her eyes Fantasies I realised Came to life to my surprise Rain came and took her away Just when I thought She was here to stay Sun gone I was left high and dry Love came by and touched me And kissed me so long Shine hard October moon Eagle take me to her soon Run swiftly silver stream Find my love or let me dream Half of me is all of her I'd be much happier if I were whole All my words and wisdom fall The poet's justice Leads me to my goal Leads me to my goal 06. Circle Of Hands Lyrics by Ken Hensley
Circle of hands
Cold spirits plan Searching my land For an enemy Came across Love's sweet cost And in the face of beauty Evil was lost Sky full of eyes Minds full of lies Black from their cold hearts Down to their graves Murdered the dawn Spreading their scorn Cursing the sun Of which love was born We must keep them away Or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow Sacrifice - the future has it's price And today is only Yesterday's tomorrow Tomorrow ... 07. Rainbow Demon Lyrics by Box, Byron, Kerslake
There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire Black shadows are following closely On the heels of his desire Ridin' on in the mist of morning No one dared to stand in his way Possessed by some distant calling Riding on through night and day Rainbow demon Pick up your heart and run Rainbow demon Lives for his sword and his gun 08. Paradise Lyrics by Ken Hensley
I feel you trying
Though in my heart I know you're lying And though your love For me is dying I see you crying It's the pain of your secret heart Bringing you to tears Filling you with fears For your mind and for your soul I touch you softly now Borne on by hope Until the end somehow I am a man and I must keep my vow I must go on But the wall of your secret heart Keeps my distance clear Helps my footsteps fall Back in line inside my mind What's the use you turned me loose And left me here to cry Where's the love we talked about Where's my sunny sky Secret hearts and sorry tales Will never help love grow Spread your wings my daunted soul The time has come to go I will not be hurried down Or blackened by your lies I must go and find my dream And live in paradise 09. The Spell Lyrics by Ken Hensley
What do you think I am
Do you think I'm dreaming Don't you know I know What it is you're scheming Who d'you think gave you the right Hidden by the dead of night To take the world and Turn it upside down When it should be round Seems I made it just in time To use my reason and my rhyme To save us from The evils of your mind I will cast the spell Be sure I'll cast it well I will light a fire Kindled with desire I'll fill you with fear So you know I'm here And I won't be treated like a fool It's no good you pretending There'll be no happy ending I'm alive and darkness is my tool But when the night is over And daytime steals your cover The goodness of the morning sun Will warm away What you have done And leave you cold I have no need for moonlight You're wrong to trust in sunlight For I exist not just in storms But in life itself in so many forms To leave you cold I will leave you now But you won't defeat me You had best beware When you come to meet me Love and truth will follow me An army of reality Brought from every corner Of the world You will never break the spell I'll summon all the fires of hell And this is my advice For what it's worth Let us not begin This fight we cannot win Be sure you're watching me 'Cause all through your life Everyday and everynight You should know that I'll be watching you |
