Over the years Pretty Maids have sold hundreds of thousands of records, but have never broken through in a major way. They have supported such well known acts as Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Saxon, Nazareth and were also featured at the 1987 German version of Monsters of Rock where Metallica headlined along with Deep Purple.
The new 2006 album "Wake Up to the Real World" shows the band back in former glory. Great hard rock/melodic rock with a metal touch to it. The album includes a cover of Deep Purple's classic gem "Perfect Strangers". Pretty Maids is currently signed to Frontiers Records.
I'll Be There
Pretty Maids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't take for granted
What some take for sure
There are no heroes
And even no wonderland
This is for real babe
It's no farytale
Sometimes to easy to go off the rails
One you can run to when there's no hands to hold
I'll be there when it's closing in
I'll be there try to keep you from falling
Take you into my temple of dreams
Now and then when it seems
That there's not enough love to go round
This is our world
This is insane
Life passing by
Just like a runaway train
Now we're just traveling
On a ship of fools
These are the times
Days of no trust
Love turns to hatred and diamonds to dust
I'll be a shelter be your compagny
Whenever you're lonely you can lean on me

And even no wonderland
Life isn't always magical like in fairy tales
This is for real babe
This is the reality of life
It's no fairy tale

When it feels like there is a lack of love or support in the world
This is our world

Life passing by
Life goes by quickly
Just like a runaway train
Life can feel chaotic and out of control
Now we're just traveling
Now we are just moving forward, often without direction or purpose
On a ship of fools
We are all on this journey together, often making mistakes along the way
These are the times
This is the current state of the world
Days of no trust
A time when trust is hard to come by
Love turns to hatred and diamonds to dust
In these difficult times, love can turn into hate and valuable things can be destroyed
I'll be a shelter be your compagny
I'll be there to provide safety and support in difficult times
Whenever you're lonely you can lean on me
Whenever you feel alone, I'll be there to support you
