The Golden Palace

Uriah Heep

Locked behind the door 
Taken by force 
But I'm not guilty of the crime 
How can this be real 
What is aganst the law 
To say what's on your mind 
Then I see your face 
So warm as it comforts me 
And tells me I am not alone 
Pray for me tonight 
Give me the strength of love 
To help me cross the virgin snow 

I will run till daybreak 
My tears will fade away 
They'll never take me again 
No I'm never going back 
'Cause when I get to the golden palace 
Everything will surely be so clear 

Can we give ourselves 
Like a mother to her child 

They took a part of me 
Whenever I think of it 
I shiver to the bone 
The scar is on my heart 
When will the crimes of 
Inhumanity be known 
I am only one voice 
I will not fade away 
So many are silent 
But I will never look back 
'Cause when I get to the golden palace 
Everything will surely disappear 

The snow has gone at last 
I'm out of the shadows and into the sun 
And then I see you smile 
Angel of mercy 
The fight has jus begun 
I can hear them calling 
Across the frozen land 
The world will hear us 
You know it's never too late 
'Cause when we get 
To the golden palace 
The memory will surely be so clear
