Released: April 25, 1980

Songwriter: Black Sabbath

Producer: Martin Birch

Lord, she's handsome as she flows across the floor
Nothing I've seen in my life has ever pleased me more
She's got the look of freedom and it makes you think she's wild
But I can see right through it all, it's her way to have a child

[Chorus]
Oh, walk away
She's looking to love you
There's nothing to say
Just turn your head and walk away
Walk away, walk on

She moves in sunlight, never seen the night at all
Like a star in the midnight sky, burns before it falls
I've never been lonely and I can't imagine why
Maybe she could be the one to tell me, I guess it's do or die

Can't see her fire
But I can feel her heat, all right
It's rising higher
I'm walking the wire

Walk on by

[Chorus]

You'll feel her fire, she'll lift you higher
But don't be fooled, just turn your head and walk away

Heaven & Hell were an English-American heavy metal band active from 2006 to 2010. The band was a collaboration featuring four ex-Black Sabbath members, Ronnie James Dio (vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass) and Vinny Appice (drums).

The quartet was Black Sabbath from 1980 to 1982, and again from 1991 to 1992. After they reunited to record three new songs for the 2007 compilation album, Black The Dio Years, they embarked on a 2007–2008 tour. Iommi, owner of the Black Sabbath name, decided to call the touring group Heaven & Hell to differentiate the project from the Ozzy Osbourne-led Black Sabbath. The moniker was taken from the first Dio-fronted Black Sabbath album, Heaven and Hell (though that album did not feature Appice, being released two years prior to his entrance).

According to Iommi, the name change was made so that fans at concerts would not expect “to hear “Iron Man” and “War Pigs” and all that… it’s none of the old stuff, it’s none of the Ozzy period. It’s all Dio stuff. So by calling ourselves Heaven and Hell, it’s revisiting that period.”
