Glenn Hughes, Deep Purple, Trapeze, Black Sabbath - I Don't Want to Live That Way Again (Studio)

I kiss the day, there can be no other answer Turn back the time and let me in I look away, as they stare and all their glances Now I can tell you where I've been All alone inside myself I guess I never knew which way to go The time has come to know yourself And I don't want to live that way again, Again, again, again. I'm miles away, as I look into the water And there's a tide that pulls me in The missing page where there'll be the sons and daughters I live and die it's hard to take Safe within, this higher ground The pleasure and the pain has come and gone I have been once lost now found And I don't want to live that way again There's a light in the distance And a voice that cries freedom There's a child in the mirror, Much too long he's been grievin' I have stumbled thru madness Now I've made my decision, And I don't want to live that way again So I pull down the shutters And I wave my resistance And I wait for the sirens That will ring thru my head I was cast as a leper Now I've replaced my religion And I don't want to live that way again
