Uriah Heep : Conquest

1. NO RETURN

I'm at the point of no return
I'm watching the candle burn - both ends
There's a lesson we both can learn - this time
So if you wanna make my day
There's something you've gotta say
Now please don't laugh and turn away - this time
I don't wanna make a fuss
But this is the time for us
And I ain't gonna miss the bus - this time

No return -
So there'll be no turning back once I know that you'll be by my side
No return -
Maybe you'll give me all the love that you always felt you had to hide
No return -
I've come a thousand miles across the ocean
But that ain't half as far as my emotion
And now I reached the point of no return

While on my way down the avenue
I had to stop for a drink or two - or three
Now not that I was stalling you - for time
It's just I wanted to feel my best
And I almost passed the test
I need your lovin' to do the rest - this time

No return -
So please don't ever do what you've done so many times before
No return -
Because I've made up my mind that this time I'll make it thru your door
No return -
I rode above the clouds so far below me
But didn't get as high as when you hold me
And now I've reached the point of no return

I'm at the point of no return
I'm watching the candle burn - both ends
There's a lesson we both can learn - this time
I don't wanna make a fuss
But this is the time for us
I ain't gonna miss the bus - this time


2. IMAGINATION

Sometimes I'm certain. sometimes my mind is filled with doubt
Some thoughts lay heavy here, sometimes I think it's figured out
Imagination, endless voyage of discovery
I'm at once impatient and afraid some day you may walk out on me

At least when you're with me, I'm not afraid to live with mistery
For I'm sure know how sad one night without a dream can be
Imagination, bitter-sweet companion as my time flies by
Love-hate relation, hand in hand toward infinity

Lead me here, lead me there
Everywhere if you really dare
Today, tonight, tomorrow
You don't have to take my hand
I'll take it just the way it's planned
Lead on, speed on, I'll follow

When you see me coming ,you've gonna know I'm not alone
Me and my imagination
We'll be side by side any way the wind is blown
Love songs and fantasies, they've kept us busy since the day we met
But each new horizon only reminds us it's not over yet


3. FEELINGS

Feelings, empty feelings
Prayin', hopin', needin'
Just when I wanted to hold you
You're leavin', you're leavin'
Leavin', leavin'

When we meet
Every night in the bar
If I'm feelin' alright
We'll get high in your car
Then come morning
And you will be gone
You're my five-minute friend
And you've gotta move on

And you don't stop me
Thinkin' my feelings
And I'm hidin' the hurtin' inside
And I know how you
Set my heart reelin'
As I see it and swallow my pride

Well, either you don't give a damn
Or you don't even care to pretend
Or you won't spare a thought
Though you know
It must come to an end

And I've got those feelings...


4. FOOLS

Fools play at games don't you know that fools play at games
And I know that I'm not afraid of you

I know this feeling inside has just made up my mind
I'm gonna take this chance and do what's in my heart
You always says that you'd stand by me and help me get along
So understand I must do what's in my heart

I know this feeling inside has helped me to carry on
So as the day go by and the nights that never end
You play the clubs and you play the game
The next day you will find
You'll have to try and please that fool again

Day after day I feel this way that I need to be moving on
You know I depend on you but don't get my wrong
I'll throw the dice and play the game and hope we get along
Even then I won't be fooled again

So I've read your words and Ive signed my name
But I can't make up my mind
If you really care or you're playing your games


5. CARRY ON

What can I do what can I say
Do I have to stand and watch you walk away
I know there's got to be a better way
I just can't go on living for today

I thought I heard a voice out on the wind
And I'm sure I heard it say I'd find a friend
And it said I'd find the answers in the end
All I gotta do is carry on

Carry on carry on the time is flyin'
You need another love maybe another town
Carry on carry on
Don't wait until your hope is gone
When you last chance comes around

I'm gonna keep on looking I won't quit
Aggravation, it ain't gonna hurt a bit
And I believe that I have seen the last of it
There's nothing left to do but carry on


6. WON'T HAVE TO WAIT TOO LONG

It's a quarter to seven on a Saturday morning
I open my eyes after the Friday night -
I don't worry about the rain upon my window
'Cos where I'm going I know the sun will always shine
So now I'm heading away down to Rio de Janeiro
I'll be leaving all my lonely times behind -
And if I'm looking for love in Rio de Janeiro
There'll be someone there I know who'll find the time
In this golden -place, there's a smiling face
I've got to find
And I won't have to wait too long before she's mine

My friends are telling me I'm chasing rainbows
Or searching for the gold beneath the sea -
But rainbows only shine when it's been raining
And gold can never keep you company -
So now I'm wondrin' what to say in conversation
To the lady of my dreams that I should meet -
If I speak to her in the language of all nations
Then I'm sure that she'd be knocked right off her feet -
And I know she will, then I'll love her till
The end of time -
And I won't have to wait too long before she's mine

Well I've been happy enough in Rio de Janeiro
I've got a woman here that I can call my own -
But it doesn't matter if I'm living here or there
'Cos she used to live next door to me back home -
But if you're thinking that I've settled down forever
I'll be telling you you've made a big mistake -
'Cos I'll be heading away down to Denver, Colorado
There's a woman there I've got to try and make -
She can fill the hole in my heart and soul
For a long, long time -
And know I won't have to wait too long before she's mine


7. OUT ON THE STREET

Out on the street, dead on my feet
At the mercy of the stone-cold night
It's hard to compete, in a dead-end street
With frustration in your line of sight
Do you ever stop and think
Do you ever stop at all
Do you have the time to feel
And if you do, do you know the feeling's real

Followed a sign that pointed the way
And I found myself right back at the start
I like to feel good, I've tried feeling sad
But I can't stand a broken heart
Don't wanna wait till my dyin' day
To realise
I guess I'm lucky in a strange kind of way
'Cause it's clear before my eyes

A grey cloud they say hides a surprise
But it rained until I lost my belief
Just close your eyes and we'll show you the way
But I believe I've lost my faith
One man speaks and one man does while another soul wields the sword
I hear you all but I still can't see just who it is
Who speaks the chosen word


8. IT AIN'T EASY

You make it all sound easy now you've tasted all my wine
I never wanted to hear the news that you'd found another man
But it's hard to see what you want from me
It's not easy to be in-between
It's now up to you to make the move this time

Monday morning's waiting, take a look at what you see
Make the most of your live, don't keep the pages clean
Baby, now you've got this chance don't leave me out
It's so hard when you're in-between
What you need and what may never be

It ain't easy when you don't know where to turn
And it ain't easy but you take the chance
The final chance to learn, yes to learn
That it ain't easy when you don't know where to turn
And it ain't easy, so take a look - another look at life - look at life
'Cos it ain't what you've got in the palm of your hand
And it's not what you'll get from another man
That will last you the rest of your life my friend
