The Wizard

Uriah Heep

1. He was the wizard of a thousand years
   and I chanced to meet him one night, wandering.
   He told me tales, and he drank my wine.
   Me and my magic man kinda feel fine.

2. He had a cloak of gold and eyes of fire
   and as he spoke I felt a keen desire
   to free the world of its fear and hate
   and help the people to feel free again.

3. Why dont we listen to the voices in our hearts
   'cos then I know we'd find we're not so far apart
   Everybody's got to be happy, everyone should sing
   For we know the joy of life is the peace that love can bring.

4. So spoke the wizard from his mountain home.
   The vision of his wisdom means we'll never be alone
   And I will dream of that magic night
   and a million silver stars that guide us with their light.
