Confession
Uriah Heep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the times it went a little wrong
Try to understand
That I've made my plans
With my love for you in mind
Sometimes you get the wrong idea
And I can't seem to make it clear
It's ‘cause I don't know
The best way to say I love you
Every living day
You fill my heart
With a breath of spring
And I search the universe
For some joy
That I can bring to you

I'm so sorry for the things I've done
I apologize for my mistakes
And the times it went a little wrong
I acknowledge the times I was wrong
Try to understand
Please empathize with my situation
That I've made my plans
I have thought and prepared for the future
With my love for you in mind
My actions are fueled by my love for you
Sometimes you get the wrong idea
At times, you might misunderstand me
And I can't seem to make it clear
I am not able to effectively express myself
If my heart doesn't show
If I fail to display my emotions
It's ‘cause I don't know
It is due to my lack of clarity
The best way to say I love you
I struggle to find the perfect words to express my love
Every living day
Each and every day
You fill my heart
My heart is brimming with love for you
With a breath of spring
Like a refreshing spring air
And I search the universe
I explore every corner of the world
For some joy
In pursuit of happiness
That I can bring to you
That I can share with you

Confession"
I'm so sorry for the things I've done
And the times it went a little wrong
Try to understand that I made my plans
With my love for you in mind
Sometimes you get the wrong idea
And I can't seem to make it clear
If my heart doesn't show it's cause I don't know
The best way to say I love you
Every living day you fill my heart
With a breath of spring
And I search the universe for some joy
That I can bring
To you
Every living day you fill my heart
With a breath of spring
And I search the universe for some joy
That I can bring
To you!

But Reality is this:
Never sorry for the things I've done
And the times it went a little wrong
You never understand that I made my plans
With my love for you in mind
Almost always you've got wrong ideas
And you can't seem to make it clear
If your brain doesn't get it cause you don't care
Wheather I love my bi-ch or not
Every single day you fill my head
With an aching pain
And I search the universe for some cure
That I can heal
My soul
Every single day you fill my head
With an aching pain
And I search the universe for some cure
That I can heal
My soul

Sometimes Byron's voice still brings a tear to my eyes. I've loved his voice since 1970 and High Priestess.

When I look at my wife I think of this song. I bought my first Heep album in 76. Married her in 86. I think she loves them more than I do. Good to know you love them also.

Love the Beach Boys-esque harmonies. Really shows how versatile Heep could be. It didnt always work like on I Can't Stop Singing but David Byron really knocked ballads out of the park
Александр Пригорницкий
Великая группа! Лучшие годы творчества - 1970-1977, а с Байроном - лучшие альбомы!
