A Bit of Finger/Sleeping Village/Warning Lyrics

Red sun rising in the sky
Sleeping village, cockerel's cry
Soft breeze blowing in the trees
Peace of mind, feel at ease

Now the first day that I met you
I was looking in the sky
When the sun turned all a blur
And the thunderclouds rolled by

The sea began to shiver
And the wind began to moan
It must have been a sign for me
To leave you well alone

I was born without you, baby
But my feelings were a little bit too strong

You never said you love me
And I don't believe you can
Because I saw you in a dream
And you were with another man

You look so cool and casual
And I tried to look the same
But now I've got to love you
Tell me who have I to blame?

I was born without you, baby
But my feelings were a little bit too strong

Now the whole wide world is movin'
Because there's iron in my heart
I just can't keep from cryin'
Because you say we've got to part

Sorrow grips my voice
As I stand here all alone
And watch you slowly take away
A love I've never known

I was born without you, baby
But my feelings were a little bit too strong
Just a little bit too strong

Now the whole wide world is movin'
Because there's iron in my heart
I just can't keep from cryin'
Because you say we've got to part

Sorrow grips my voice
As I stand here all alone
And watch you slowly take away
A love I've never known

I was born without you, baby
But my feelings were a little bit too strong
Just a little bit too strong

Just found out Warning isn't a Sabbath original (& that John got the lyrics wrong bc he was drunk :)

Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation originated "Warning" 2 years earlier. Maybe that's why this medley didn't get more Comments here(?) I'm gonna see if Retaliation's Warning got recognition here now...
