1. Dio was an American heavy metal band formed in 1982 and led by vocalist Ronnie James Dio. Dio left Black Sabbath with intentions to form a new band with fellow former Black Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice. The name Dio was chosen because it made sense from a commercial standpoint, as the name was already well known at that time. The band released ten studio albums and had numerous lineup changes over the years, with Dio himself being the only constant member. Guitarists included Vivian Campbell, Craig Goldy, Doug Aldrich, Warren DeMartini, Tracy G, Jake E. Lee and Rowan Robertson. The band dissolved in 2010 when Ronnie James Dio died of stomach cancer at the age of 67. Dio has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide.

Dio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the night that they first decided
It was blinding with snow
On the night that they ran away
They were found in the dark
But they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door
She was meant to be wild
He was nearly a child
But they only could feel each other
They were paper and fire
Angel and liar
The devil of one another
Then they were thrown to the ground
With a terrible sound
Just like somebody broke a heart
Rock and roll children
Alone again
Rock and roll children
Without a friend
But they've got rock and roll
Yeah
It was starting to rain
On the night that they cried forever, oh
It was blinding with snow
On the night that they screamed goodbye
They were lost in the dark
And they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door
Our rock and roll children
Alone again
Rock and roll children
Without a friend
Poor rock and roll children
Caught up in the spinning wheel
Poor rock and roll children
Alone again
It was starting to rain
On the night that they ran
It was blinding with snow
On the night we let them go
Poor rock and roll children
Oh, children
Rock and roll children
Children of the night
Poor rock and roll children (rock and roll)
Poor children lost, poor souls
Rock and roll children, oh yeah
Poor rock and roll children
