Manfred Mann's Earth Band - The Road to Babylon lyrics

By the waters of Babylon We lay down and wept and wept for these I am We remember, we remember, we remember these I am A golden helmet blinded minds Among ten thousand swords along the road to Babylon A golden thunder silenced songs Among ten thousand voices on the road to Babylon Well, well, well Beware that golden helmet Well, well, well There's no easy way to go Well, well, well No easy road to follow Well, well, well A golden ocean turned to fire And burned ten thousand ships along the road to Babylon A golden dreamer touched the sky

Alone in empty silence on the road to Babylon Well, well, well Beware that golden thunder Well, well, well That dreamed and sang the song Well, well, well The empty sound of sorrow Well, well, well A golden helmet blinded minds Among ten thousand swords along the road to Babylon A golden thunder silenced songs Among ten thousand voices on the road to Babylon Well, well, well Beware that golden helmet Well, well, well There's no easy way to go Well, well, well No easy road to follow Well, well, well
