Weep in Silence

Uriah Heep · Come Away Melinda: Ballads [2006]

You who thought

Your eyes could tell no lies

So your life became a compromise

And it was you

Who had seen men dyin'

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



While your women weep in silence

Your women weep in silence

Women weep in silence
