Black Sabbath Complete Lyrics

Black Sabbath Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]
[Riff]
 
[Verse 1]
What is this that stands before me?
Figure in black which points at me
Turn 'round quick and start to run
Find out I'm the chosen one
Oh, no
 
[Verse 2]
Big black shape with eyes of fire
Tellin' people their desire
Satan's sittin' there, he's smilin'
Watches those flames get higher and higher
Oh, no, no, please, God, help me
 
[Outro]
Is it the end, my friend?
Satan's comin' 'round the bend
People runnin' 'cause they're scared
The people better go and beware
No, no, please, no
 
[Guitar Solo]

The Wizard Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]
 
[Verse 1]
Misty morning, clouds in the sky
Without warning, a wizard walks by
Casting his shadow, weaving his spell
Long grey cloak, twinkling bell
 
[Chorus]
Never talking
Just keeps walking
Causing his magic
 
[Verse 2]
Evil power disappears
Demons worry when the wizard is near
He turns tears into joy
Everyone's happy when the wizard walks by
 
[Chorus]
Never talking
Just keeps walking
Causing his magic
 
[Verse 3]
Sun is shining, clouds have gone by
All the people give a happy sigh
He has passed by, giving his sign
Left all the people feeling so fine
 
 
[Chorus]
Never talking
Just keeps walking
Spreading his magic

Behind the Wall of Sleep Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Visions cupped within the flower
Deadly petals with strange power
Faces shine a deadly smile
Look upon you at your trial
 
[Verse 2]
Chill that numbs from head to toe
Icy sun with frosty glow
Words that glow read to your sorrow
Words that glow read "No tomorrow"
 
[Bridge]
Feel your spirit rise with the breeze
Feel your body falling to its knees
Take your wall of remorse
Turns your body to a corpse
Turns your body to a corpse
Turns your body to a corpse
Sleeping wall of remorse
Turns your body to a corpse
 
[Verse 3]
Now from darkness, there springs light
Wall of sleep is cool and bright
Wall of sleep is lying broken
Sun shines in, you have awoken

Sleeping Village Lyrics

[Part I: Bit of Finger]
 
[Verse]
Red sun rising in the sky
Sleeping village, cock’rel’s cry
Soft breeze blowing in the trees
Peace of mind, feel at ease
[Part II: Sleeping Village]
 
[Instrumental]
