 URIAH HEEP - A Year Or A Day Lyrics

[Hensley]
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Seen from a height of a thousand miles the earth
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
looks the same as it did
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
How is it we can fly faster than day
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
but we can't find the things we need
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Young man said the old man
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Let the youth in your heart be at rest
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
We may all be dead in a year or a day
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
When the devil is put to the test
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Test, test, TEST!
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
The day of creation was our finest hour it's
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
something we ought to defend
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
But it's been so abused since the first day of light
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
that no glory can come in the end
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Young man cried the old man
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
There is victory in staying alive
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
And if you care so little for the world we're in
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Why and what do you want to survive
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Can't we try to let the past go by, with its lessons firmly
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
settled in our minds
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
To our children one by one and before the darkness comes
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
let us leave a world full of light of a different kind
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
In truth they should meet and with love their hearts should beat
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
And with patience solve the problems of our time
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
It wouldn't be so hard to do, it's only up to me and you
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Let us not bequeath a life that is a crime
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Seen from a height of a thousand miles the earth
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
looks the same as it did
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
How is it we can fly faster than day
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
but we can't find the things we need
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Young man cried the old man
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Let the youth in your heart be at rest
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
We may all be dead in a year or a day
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
When the devil is put to the test whoa
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Young man cried the old man
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Let the youth in your heart be at rest
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
We may all be dead in a year or a day
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
When the devil is put to the test whoa
p23d31317f151422?dd1!

p23d31317f151422?dd1!
Young man, young man
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
[repeat to fade]
p23d31317f151422?dd1!
