Deep Purple - Shield Lyrics
Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dreamWhile the children play in the fieldPapa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better lifeBut how strong is the shield?Can peace be found on the carpet above groundWhere sky is forever blueSo let it pass baby now, the slow and riding cloudWhich may take me from youMany things a man can loseHis self, his rights, his viewsBut never his heart or his loveSo take this hand of mine and climb baby, climbTo the hill up aboveNow you can play a queen on the hill built on a dreamWhile our children play in the fieldI can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better lifeAnd trust in the strength of the shieldSo trust in you love, and lucy of aboveAnd let light pass like a wheelDont take the chance of lifes hectic danceKiss the strength of the shieldThe seeker will be found by the looker on the groundAnd to his wish he will yieldFate will have its word, of course (? )And time will change its courseAnd hold the strength of the shield
