Artist/Band: Uriah Heep
Lyrics for Song: Paradise / The Spell
Lyrics for Album: Icon [1980]



PARADISE



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



THE SPELL



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
