Lyrics Pilgrim - Uriah Heep

Pilgrim

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
