Deep Purple - Shield lyrics
Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream
 While her children play in the field
 Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life
 But how strong is the shield?
 Can peace be found
 On the carpet above ground?
 Where sky is forever blue
 So let it pass baby now
 The slow inviting cloud
 Which may take me from you
 Many things a man can lose, his self, his rights, his views
 But never his heart or his love
 So take this hand of mine and climb baby climb
 To the hill up above
 Deep Purple - Shield - http://motolyrics.com/deep-purple/shield-lyrics.html
 Now you can play a queen on the hill built on a dream
 While our children play in the field
 I can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better life
 And trust in the strength of the shield
 So trust in your love and you'll see up above
 And let light pass like a wheel
 Don't take the chance of life's hectic dance
 Kiss the strength of the shield
 The seeker will be found
 By the looker underground
 And to his wish he will yield
 Fate will have its word of course
 But time will change its course
 And hold the strength of the shield
