Album

When I was wandering in the desert
And I was searching for the truth
I heard a choir of angels calling out my name
I had the feeling that my life would never be the same again
I turn my face towards the barren sun

And I know of the pain, that you feel the same as me
And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves
And the cracks in our lives like the cracks upon the ground
They are sealed and are now washed away

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears

And I know of the pain, that you feel the same as me
And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves
And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives
They are sealed and now far away

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears

(2:02 – Solo: Dave Murray)

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away

You tell me we can start the rain
You tell me that we all can change
You tell me we can find something to wash the tears

And I know of the pain, that you feel the same as me
And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves
And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives
They are sealed and now far away

Hand of fate is moving and the finger points to you
He knocks you to your feet and so what are you gonna do
Your tongue has frozen now you've got something to say
The piper at the gates of dawn is calling you his way

You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Say goodbye to gravity and say goodbye to death
Hello to eternity and live for every breath

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

The ferryman wants his money you ain't going to give it back
He can push his own boat as you set up off the track
Nothing you can contemplate will ever be the same
Every second is a new spark, sets the universe aflame

You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Brothers and their fathers joining hands and make a chain
The shadow of the Wicker Man is rising up again

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

(Solo: Adrian Smith)

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

He's walking like a small child but watch his eyes burn you away
Black holes in his golden stare God knows he wants to go home

Children of the damned, Children of the damned
Children of the damned, Children of the damned

He's walking like a dead man if he had lived he would have crucified us all
Now he's standing on his last step he thought oblivion well it beckons us all

Children of the damned, Children of the damned
Children of the damned, Children of the damned

Now it's burning his hands he's turning to laugh
Smiles as the flame sears his flesh
Melting his face screaming in pain
Peeling the skin from his eyes
Watch him die according to plan
He's dust on the ground what did we learn?

(Solo: Adrian Smith)

You're children of the damned your back's against the wall
You turn into the light you're burning in the night
You're children of the damned like candles watch them burn
Burning in the light you'll burn again tonight

Children of the damned
