Pilgrim - Uriah Heep

A pilgrim at the grey of dawn

Leaving in the mist of morning

On his journey of goodness

Heaven sent, God blessed

Pilgrim laughing at the world

Spreading joy

At the touch of his hand

Wiping out all the misery

Making love and history

Those of us who dont know war

We shouldnt try to make it So many did and even more died

Do you think you could take it?

Love lies waiting at my back door

Such a beautiful matter of fact

Lifes like an apple

With love as the core

And Ill tell you bout that

Just a man in my prime

Love was there

But I had no time

I was cheered and adored

And I thought fame

Was all the world

Battles won and victory cheers

Were the sounds

Id heard for years

But the women I really loved

Was losing me To all this blood

I only knew I had to win

And build a world

Where I was king

But leaders come and leaders go And thats the truth

I came to know

Love or war I couldnt choose

And so both

I had to lose
