'Uriah Heep / The Absolute Best Of 'Uriah Heep', CD2 (2009)' Lyrics! CD2 01.

One Way Or Another (Ken Hensley) There's been some Changes in my time But, this one's playing Games with my mind Stopped in my tracks No thought of looking back The lady's got me tied up But, I've already made my mind up One way or another She'll be mine It wasn't anything I could define None of those ringing bells Giving me a sign I just took a look But, I was on the hook The lady's got me tied up Don't know how it's gonna wind up One way or another Gonna be all right I'm beginning to think That a forever kind of love Is the kind of love I'll look for - forever But, still I'll love and love again One way or another I will find my friend [solo] I knew some day my heart Would lead my head Beyond the path My chosen life had led I'd been so sure

But, where is the cure The lady's got me real good But, you can't say What I should do One way or another It's all over now One way or another (Repeat, dozens of times!) 02. Who Needs Me? (Lee Kerslake) Don't take life for granted 'cause you know that Life won't grant you back The feelings on the love That you once had You've taken me for granted 'Cause, you know I'm a lover just like you And I'll do anything You want me to Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find someone How you'll find one Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find another but no better You can't argue with me now I needed you and You did not know how Don't let go of something That is good when I'll tell you it's bad Let 'em hear the story Make 'em sad And, if the price of love Can cost you less than When it first began

I guess that you won't Find a better man Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find someone How you'll find one Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find another but no better You can't argue with me now I needed you and You did not know... You can't argue with me now I needed you and You did not know how [solo] Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find someone How you'll find one Who needs me? Who needs me now? You'll find another but no better You can't argue with me now I needed you and You did not know... You can't argue with me now I needed you and You did not know how I needed you, I needed YOU, yeah! Ah, who needs me? Who needs me? Yeah! Who needs me? Oh! Who needs me? Who needs me? Who needs me? 03. Rollin' On (Ken Hensley)

It came as the daybreak Must surely arrive Opened my eyes just To be sure I was alive Another day They're much the same Twenty-four-hours for me To try again I'm I'm I'm I'm rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' on on on on (rollin' (rollin' (rollin' (rollin' on) on) on) on)

I've never seen Meeting people Seeing places I've never been I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) Rollin' on and on and on forever Yes, I am! Rollin', rollin', rollin' on together Rollin' on and on and on forever Rollin', rollin', rollin' on together I'm rollin' on, I'm rollin' on I'm rollin' on, I'm rollin' on Ah, Crystal ball You let me down again! I'm rollin' on ... well, I'm rollin' ... I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) I'm rollin' on (rollin' on), Rolling, rolling, rolling! I'm rollin' on (rollin' on), this longest road I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) I'm rollin' on (rollin' on), to where I don't care! I'm rollin' on (rollin' on) 04. Free Me (Ken Hensley) Free me! Free me! Why won't you free me? Free me from your spell Come on and free me Why won't you free me? Come on and free me Free me from your spell Why should I worry that you might not love you're not The only love that I've ever had? Your sweet memory will always comfort me So, why should I be feeling sad As far as I can tell You knew so well I was always at the end of the line

I've loved you as much As any man can But, not enough to make you mine So, long easy rider I know I'll miss you for a while But, sooner or later I know that I'll forget you And, I tell your baby Free me Come on and free me Why won't you free me? Free me from your spell Free me Come on and free me Why won't you free me? Free me from your spell We let a good love die We let it pass us by Though you tried to keep me hanging on But, with all this doubt It'll never work out So, tomorrow I'll be travelling on And, saying so long easy rider I know I'll miss you for a while But, sooner or later I know that I'll forget you And, I'm begging, baby Free me Oh girl, come on and free me Why won't you free me? Free me from your spell Oh yeah, come on and Free me I'm on my knees, baby, free me Why won't you free me? Free me from your spell Free me Oh babe, come on, and free me Free me from your spell!

Prisoner (Lance, Cooper, Ripparetti) Time has come to say goodbye To the broken memories They're locked inside like prisoners In a place that no-one sees Stayed up late with a friend of mine Southern Comfort till dawn We talked about the pains of love Should've known from The start you were wrong I'm just a prisoner Don't wanna lock myself away Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely I'm a prisoner (prisoner) Just when you think love will stay It walks right out on you - out on you Tired blood runs through my veins But, I can't get no sleep You lock my heart In these prison walls This place I've got to leave I'm a prisoner Don't wanna lock myself away Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely I'm a prisoner Just when you think love will stay It walks right out on you - (it walks right) out on you The sky is grey, it's raining Like the storm in my heart There ain't no use explaining

'cause I'm leaving, leaving, yeah! Time has come to say goodbye To the broken memories They're locked inside like prisoners In a place that no-one sees I'm a prisoner Don't wanna lock myself away Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely I'm a prisoner Just when you think love will stay It walks right out on you - (it walks right) out on you I'm a prisoner Don't wanna lock myself away Prisoner - I get so lonely, lonely I'm a prisoner Just when you think love will stay It walks right out on you - (it walks right) out on you Prisoner Won't somebody set me free (prisoner) Take me away from this misery (prisoner) I get so lonely (prisoner) I get so lonely, lonely, lonely Won't somebody set me free Please, please, set me free! 12. Think It Over (John Sloman, Trevor Bolder) I've had all I can take I've taken just too much I've made a big mistake That put me out of touch I don't think I can face Another single day Without a call from you To take this pain away So many tears ago You turned and walked away It could've been the end But, I knew better I had to tell myself

There'll be another day She wants to call it quits But, don't you let her Can't you see? There's a chance for you and me Think it over Don't believe In the things that may not be Think it over Why don't you think it over? Forgetting you is out I ain't givin' in The fuss was down to you But, it's not over You have to face the truth I'm still in love with you I have to make you see That it's not over Can't you see? There's a chance for you and me Think it over Don't believe In the things that may not be Think it over Why don't you think about it, baby? [solo] Can't you see?
