Long Live Rock N Roll (L.A. Rehearsal, 1977) - Rainbow

At the end of a dream

If you know where I mean

When the mist just starts to clear

In a similar way

At the end of today

I can feel the sound of writing on the wall

It cries for you

It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind

I can hear it screamin' in my mind

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

Let it live

In a different time

When the words didn't rhyme

You could never quite be sure

Then on with the change

It was simple but strange

And you knew the feeling seemed to say it all

It cries for you

It's the least that you can do

Like a spiral on the wind

I can hear it screamin' in my mind

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

I'm losing control

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll yeah

Long live rock and roll

Look you

If you suddenly see

What has happened to me

You should spread the word around

And tell everyone here

That it is perfectly clear

They can sail above it all on what they've found

It cries for you

It's the best that you can do

Like a sound that's everywhere

I can hear it screaming through the air

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

Let it live let it live let it live

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll yeah

Long live rock and roll

Banners held high with a curse and cry and it's

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

You feel it around spread it around

Make you what just should

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

Live live live live

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll

Let it live let it live let it live let it live

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock 'n' roll

Long live rock and roll
