And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life
What do you think you'd expect you would see?
Just like a mirror reflecting the moves of your life
And in the river reflections of me
Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see
And in a movement he beckons to me
And in a moment the memories are all that remain
And all the wounds are reopening again
And as you look all around at the world in dismay
What do you see, do you think we have learned
Not if you're taking a look at the war-torn affray
Out in the streets where the babies are burned
There are times when I feel I'm afraid for the world
There are times I'm ashamed of us all
When you're floating on all the emotion you feel
And reflecting the good and the bad
Will we ever know what the answer to life really is?
Can you really tell me what life is?
Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you
Could be swept away by fate's own hand
When you think that we've used all our chances
And the chance to make everything right
Keep on making the same old mistakes
Makes untipping the balance so easy
When we're living our lives on the edge
Say a prayer on the book of the dead
This song has a deep meaning to it. It touches me, the lyrics touch me and the music touch me. This has to be one of Iron Maiden's best. And btw, this song is not all about his father, it means that every person in this world are brothers and that its our selfishness that puts this world at this state
This song is so epic I meen listen to those lyrics. I just love how they end it and if your taking a walk through the garden of life.... Amazing song definetly one of the best of iron maiden!

This song is definately one of the greatest song ever made by maiden... Its so deep, the fact steve wrote this song after his dad died on the tour just makes it more epic... Oh yeah with the guitar solos and powerful brucey, that helps as well XD
Up the Irons!

Quite an amazing song. Very powerful lyrics with equally powerful vocals to match them, the harmony in the final chorus is spectacular.
