Gypsy Lyrics
Watching the universe at the end of another day
Fatalistic ships froma distant shore
In the back of my mind I could see she was standing there
Like the feeling you have
When you've been there before
She was a gypsy woman
She was as cold as the day, yeah
She said I'd got it coming
And then she took me away, yeah
She took me through the shadows of her sunken dream
I thought it's over for me, she wasn't all she seemed
She took my hand and then she started to speak
She told me she'd had the call
With eyes of fire that were burning my soul
She looked into her crystal ball
She read my fortune then she read my mind
She didn't like my thoughts at all
She showed me shadows, a spectre of life
My soul just wanted to scream
She stared so deeply into my eyes
That's when I fell into a dream
When I awoke in bed she lay beside me
And she read me with her eyes, she said
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now, now, now
Gypsy woman you're the devil in drag
You are the queen of all hell
You took my body,now you're wasting my soul
You've got me under your spell
And as the sun shines on another day
You're gonna take my mind as well,it's over
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy
Fatalistic ships froma distant shore
In the back of my mind I could see she was standing there
Like the feeling you have
When you've been there before
She was as cold as the day, yeah
She said I'd got it coming
And then she took me away, yeah
I thought it's over for me, she wasn't all she seemed
She told me she'd had the call
With eyes of fire that were burning my soul
She looked into her crystal ball
She read my fortune then she read my mind
She didn't like my thoughts at all
My soul just wanted to scream
She stared so deeply into my eyes
That's when I fell into a dream
When I awoke in bed she lay beside me
And she read me with her eyes, she said
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now, now, now
You are the queen of all hell
You took my body,now you're wasting my soul
You've got me under your spell
And as the sun shines on another day
You're gonna take my mind as well,it's over
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy, come on now
So you want to be a gypsy

SHE DIDNT LIKE MY THOUGHTS AT ALL...... so good-------------------------------------------------------------- this is such a overlooked album......
i think its about a guy who meets a gypsy and thinks he is going to get his fortune read the gypsy soon realizes he is evil and casts a spell on him and captures his soul
great song. once i felt i was being pushed from some invisible kind of force to a gypsy. but a cop broke the spell and left me alone with my beer which is ok
One of my favorite Sabbath tunes, Technical Ecstasy is a VERY underrated album in my opinion. It's a story ad old as time... a man being sucked in and dragged down by a woman. Guys we've all been there falling for the wrong woman. Gypsy woman your the devil in drag, you are the queen of all hell, you took my body, now you're wasting my soul... you're gonna take my mind as well it's over. Been there done that... been so into a woman you lose yourself. That's what the songs about. Also one of the best outros ever. One of Iommi's best.
