The Wizard

Uriah Heep · Live In Budapest Hungary Official Bootleg Vol. 2 [2010]

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
