Heaven and Hell Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro 00:00-00:33]
[Verse 1]
Sing me a song, you're a singer
Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The Devil is never a maker
The less that you give, you're a taker
[Chorus]
So, it's on and on and on
It's Heaven and Hell
Oh well, yeah
[Verse 2]
The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
The sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
[Chorus]
So, it's on and on and on
Oh, it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
Heaven and Hell, I can tell
Fool, fool
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Yeah-yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Well, if it seems to be real, it's illusion
For every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer
But nobody bleeds for the dancer
[Chorus]
And it's on and on, on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on
[Instrumental Break 03:18-04:45]
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you gotta ride it well
The world is full of Kings and Queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
It's Heaven and Hell, oh well
And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
It's Heaven and Hell, oh no
Fool, fool
You've got to bleed for the dancer
Fool, fool
Look for the answer
Fool, fool, fool
[Instrumental Outro]
