Steve Harley - The Last Feast lyrics

Harley What'd I say? What did I do? To cause a bond between the devil and you? Who'd I k**? Who did I maim? Why did I become a victim of blame? I said my prayers, I kept my promises too I did all the things I said I was gonna do Bright lights and wicked noises They keep my mind from resting I ain't getting no sleep. Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I've been paralysed Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I'm in Paradise. Forgive me, Lord, if I live life like a fool A joker maybe from an innocent school Or in a past life if I played like a clown I never meant to show contempt for your crown. Who'd I trash? Who did I burn? What'd I say to cause you so much concern? It's getting dark now and I'm awaiting your call All I know's I took a terrible fall. Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I've been paralysed Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I'm in Paradise. I been to Athens and I been to Seville Was 50 degrees and that's like walking in hell I been to Roma, inside St. Peter's is cool I wanna get home, Lord, I wanna walk proud and tall. I've had a good year, Lord, was that my last feast? There's two kinds of world now, beauty and beast Out here on the terrace, there's a terrible sight Mandolin player's playing music of the night. Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I've been paralysed Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I'm in Paradise. Tried every angle, every conceit Every action known to succeed Yet every time I open lockets of gold I'm faced with a shot of me and mine growing old. I ain't ready to go, Lord, I'm gonna fight like a man Gonna take with me everybody I can I'm losing patience and I'm tired of this trial You're making me cry, Lord, and you're making me smile. Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I've been paralysed Sweet angels, open my eyes I been dreaming I'm in Paradise.
