Heep Song Of The Week 


Week 10

TIME OF REVELATION
(Box/Lanzon, from Sea Of Light, 1995)

WON'T YOU TAKE A CHANCE MY BROTHER
FOLLOW ME TO A TIME OF REVELATION
CAN'T YOU SEE THAT DESTINY WILL TAKE A TURN
 AND SHOW YOU THERE'S NO NEED TO FIGHT - COS YOU KNOW IT'S RIGHT 

AND I FINALLY SEE WHERE I'M GOING
I FINALLY KNOW WHAT I'M KNOWING
NOW OUR JOURNEY'S ONLY JUST BEGUN

YOU WON'T NEED TO ASK FORGIVENESS
WHAT YOU FIND WILL BE YOUR INSPIRATION
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRAY FOR GLORY
ALL IS EQUAL NO MORE PAIN YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE IT'S UP TO YOU

COS I FINALLY SEE WHERE I'M GOING
I FINALLY KNOW WHAT I'M KNOWING
NOW OUR JOURNEY'S ONLY JUST BEGUN

OVER THE BRIDGE WHERE YOU START TO BELIEVE
DOWN AT THE EDGE OF THE RAINBOW
DARK IS THE NIGHT THOUGH IT'S IN ANOTHER TIME
FOLLOW THE LIGHT OF YOUR SHADOW

RIGHT OR WRONG THERE IS NO REASON
THERE WILL BE NO HIDDEN DESTINATION
WITH THE STRENGTH THAT YOU DISCOVER
YOU CAN SHOW THE WAY HOW IT WAS MEANT TO BE FOR ALL TO SEE

COS I FINALLY KNOW WHAT I'M KNOWING
I FINALLY SEE WHERE WE'RE GOING
NOW OUR JOURNEY'S ONLY JUST BEGUN

OVER THE BRIDGE WHERE YOU START TO BELIEVE
DOWN AT THE EDGE OF THE RAINBOW
DARK IS THE NIGHT THOUGH IT'S IN ANOTHER TIME
FOLLOW THE LIGHT OF YOUR SHADOW



Week 9

Dreams
(Box/Byron/Hensley, from Wonderworld, 1974)
Dedicated to the St.Louis Heepvention 1997

You should have seen Tuesday's dream, dancing in my head
    For you'd have heard a thousand words that nobody had said   
 And you'd have watched me try to run
where dreams have never strayed
Heard my cries because I knew I really was afraid

Dreams, dreams I'll never keep
My body rests but my eyes refuse to sleep
Sights and sounds my mind created
Far beyond the thoughts of which we speak

And then we danced on silver wings, upon a gilded thread
And heard the song the angel sings to bless my lowered head
And at the door of paradise my best laid plan begun
But as I turned to reach for you my coloured night it was gone

Dreams, dreams I'll never keep
My body rests but my eyes refuse to sleep
Sights and sounds my mind created
Far beyond the thoughts of which we speak



Week 8

Mistress Of All Time
(Phil Lanzon, from Sea Of Light, 1995)

She dances on the seven seas
Dances on the ocean
Sunlight on her golden hair
Shapes of pure emotion
   Her voice is heard like crystal words across the sky   
She moves just like an angel
She's the Mistress Of All Time

Her sun pours down like liquid gold
To chase away the sorrows
Her clothes are like a million stars
Made of tears and rainbows
And all the while her senses smile into my life
She moves just like an angel
She's the Mistress Of All Time

Just like the restless to a mission bell
I must run to her meet her everywhere
As her music fills the universe

She leaves the dancing visions
Of her image on the water
And precious stones upon the shore
From every distant corner
 Like diamonds in the light they shine beyond the stars 
She moves just like an angel
She's the Mistress Of All Time

Just like the restless to a mission bell
I must run to her meet her everywhere
As her music fills the universe



Week 7

The Park
(Hensley, from Salisbury, 1971)
Lyrics transcription verified by Ken Hensley

Let me walk a while alone
Among the sacred rocks and stones
Let me look in vain belief
Upon the beauty of each leaf

Here is green in every glade
The tree tops lean providing shade
Maypoles spinning, happy sound
All natures strength around

And there's a horse that feels no pain
It's iron strength to take the strain
Children rock it to and fro
And gaily drink it's colour glow
Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah

Above the sky devoid of cloud
It's not to cast a thunder shroud
Upon this place so full of joy
A field of gold of love's employ
Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah

So why my heavy heart you say,
When tears would stain the sights so gay
My brothers dreams once here did soar
Until he died at the hand of needless war
Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah


Week 6

Time To Live
(Box/Byron/Hensley, from Salisbury, 1971)

Let me see the sunshine
Let me feel the rain
Let me go where I want to go
I want to smell the flowers
See the dawn again
Find those friends I used to know
Find those friends I used to know

Well I spent twenty long years
In a dirty old prison cell
I never saw the light of day
If you could understand oh
That kind of living hell
That's the price I have to pay Oh yeah
That's the price I have to pay Oh yeah, oh oh

They say I killed a man
But I never told them why
So you can guess what I've been through
So for twenty long years
I've been thinking of that other guy
And what I saw him do to you
What I saw him do to you

Listen here
So if tomorrow comes
And I walk outside that door
Try to understand the strain
But if you smile that smile
I know I couldn't ask for more
I know I'd do it all again
Yes I would
I know I'd do it all again
Yeah yeah yeah yeah oh yeah
Do it all again
Do it all again
