Uriah Heep

Album:

High And Mighty

You who thought your eyes could tell no lies 
So your life became a compromise 
And it was you who had seen man dyin' 
And you heard their children cryin' 
While their women weep in silence 


And you, who thought you were so wise 
Succeeded only in disguise 
Now and then you'd find a bridge to cross 
Reach the other side and you'd still be lost 
Evaded by the sweet smell of life 


And the people that you try to show the way 
Never believe you, never believe you - no way 
And the people that you try to show the way 
Never believe you, never believe you - no way 
And the people that you try to show the way 
Never believe you, never believe you - no way 
And the people that you try to show the way 
Never believe you, never believe you - no way 


And you, who thought you were so wise 
Succeeded only in disguise 
Reach the other side and you'd still be lost 
Evaded by the sweet smell of life 
While your women weep in silence 
Your women weep in silence 
Your women weep in silence
