Iron Maiden - Journeyman Lyrics
From the red sky of the east
To the sunset in the west
We have cheated death
And he has cheated us
And this is what it means
We are sleeping
And we'll dream for evermore
And the fragment remains of our memories
And the shadows we made with our hands
Deep grey, came to mourn
All the colours of the dawn
Will this journeyman's day be his last?
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
But the memory still remains
All the past years not so strange
Our winter times are like a silent shroud
And the heartbeat of the day
Drives the mist away
And winter's not the only dream around
In your life you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light
That is burning in the night
Then the journeyman's day has begun
[Repeat chorus, 5th verse, chorus]

Iron Maiden Journeyman Comments
Reminds me of Cranberries. 'I Will Always'
This song hits me right in the feels. The accoustics are great, it was brilliant from them to do something different. Amazing song, under-rated
I know what I want. I say what I want. And no one can take it away.
Fantastic song💕🤟love
why so shity quality
Listen to second chorus' second line @ 3:53 :
I know what I want
I'LL SAY WHAT I WANT!
He sings it with even more determination.
In your life you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light
That is burning in the night
Then the journeyman's day has begun
One of Maiden's most underrated songs. IMO, one of their best. The album (Dance of Death) itself is underrated, yet a masterpiece. The two songs from the album that really stand out for me are Gates of Tomorrow and this epic ballad. I just don't get how some people like this song.

Uncle Frank's a journeyman.

Nice fuckin' model!
Oh yea. I always thought dance of death was a single. Not a whole album
From the red sky of the east
To the sunset in the west
We have cheated death
And he has cheated us
But that was just a dream
And this is what it means
We are sleeping
And we'll dream for evermore
And the fragment remains of our memories
And the shadows remain with our hands
Deep gray, came to mourn
All the colors of the dawn
Will this journeyman's day be his last?
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
But the memory still remains
All the past years not so strange
Our winter times are like a silent shroud
And the heartbeat of the day
Drives the mist away
And winter's not the only dream around
In your life you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light
That is burning in the night
Then the journeyman's day has begun
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
In your life you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light
That is burning in the night
Then the journeyman's day has begun
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want
And I say what I want
And no one can take it away
Great song. Up the irons! One of Bruce's legendary song's. Still love it!!
An adventure
That brings us to reality and reminds us of
Now.
spare your life and choose the destruction of time over yourself
la mejor cancion de iron maiden
Why does 1:00 sound like sims 4 music
Very bad sound quality
Oh how wonderfull it is untill the rude awakening of that bloody snare drum ! Seriously Maiden? I have been a fanatic follower of this band since I was in elementary school in the 80's. I was given this when it came out age 23 and God...what dissapointment. So much that I had to come here today in 2018 to be remembered what the songs were. So forgettable and badly produced.
Are you on fucking crack?
Jag gillar
Ok did anyone notice that woman left of Eddie fingering herself?
mARAVILHA ADORO ESTE SOM..
This song... 'Gives me the will to keep going every time I hear it.
Edit: it will always be the "song of life" to me...
This song is so beautiful!
The chorus always gives me hope
Thank you iron maiden
best maiden song ever
awesome.
who can dislike this work of art?
Popcorn With Diesel a loser who doesnt understand music
I die for this song n many songs
This is love for my soul ❤❤
How the fuck has this hardly got any views yet nothing else matters got millions ? This is beautiful for fuck sake ,Up the irons !!

Delightful ballad !!!
Esta cancion es increible! d verdad irons, lo consiguieron
Martu Funny que consiguieron??? 🤔
......and he has cheated us,
Gracias Maiden, Gracias Bruce.
I see this album as the end of their golden age. I would be perfectly ok if this was the last song they ever did
It was SSOASS for me. Last good album.
You’re all wrong and possibly on crack
Brave New World was the end of Maiden as far as I’m concerned. Not many good songs after that.
their golden age starts in 2000 and continues... i think i'm the only one that believes that
@Nike870 You aren't.
who the fuck is cutting onions :'[[
epico.....sobretodo la intro.....grande maiden......
y u no ablo english?
Aí am my love love music
No one can take it awayyyyy
seldomsceen I’m a rocker
seldomsceen NO ONE ever will....
maiden yeppi yap
fucking perfect song :')
Five fucking imbeciles who have no idea what a brilliant fucking rock anthem this epic is.
Wellguys, at the time of writing this it's now 12 tit nibbling imbeciles but at least they are showing what knob heads they really are. Why listen to a classic rock track like this and then say they don't like it? Knob heads.
Now 16 tit nibbling knob headed imbeciles
Or maybe they protest against the fact that the person who posted this video does not own it ^^
Oh shit, we now have 23 tit nibbling imbeciles at 11/08/17!
Someone got 2 of them just 21 left.
The killer
music band rocks everything it promises to perform.
thats true moody t u wants help
All we are is dust in the wind
Joe Manzella another brick in the wall...
chemtrails in the air ...
No I m sweet child in time

Tailsman Clansman Journeyman :D my fav songs :D
Radek Pawluk if we live for a hundred years amigos no more tears 🎶🎶

I iron maiden guy

it might be "I'm an Iron Maiden guy"
Woow thisi is fucking beautiful. I can't stop listening to this perfect song. :')
You're my boy, blue!
Want this text as a tattoo.. :)
So fucking perfect
Iron maiden is better in this genre than in metal.. I almost want an acustic rock album from them... this is beautifull
We almost got one back in 86.
I would love an acoustic album, maybe do an album were half is acoustic and the other half normal Maiden. Kind of like what foo fighters did on the album In your honor.
Completely agree. This track brings out the deeper spirit of the band.
Wspaniały utwór, Iron maiden wyjątowy sposo prowadzi gitarowe sentencje. Majstersztyk.
better.
so damn close to "Dust In The Wind" from Kansas
There is a bit of a nod to it in the initial guitar picking, but I think that is intentional.
My favourite music too
Ja nem'li ja
simply beutiful
My favorite music
Jeden jjedyny kawałek tego zespołu jest zajebisty
Jeden jedyny? Udał Ci się ten żart, nie ma co ;)
Great song but ... OMFGGG What a cover ?
I think that lot of people don't know waht iron maiden mean across this cover (sry for my english i'm french)
the number of the beast in likes...lol
im not saying its bad but i think its electric version is better
Its like a second part of Prodigal Son
A very good song to remind everyone that they have to live the way the want and not how others tell them to do so...
No hay un calificativo para esta música
Seventh son of a deventh sin is a very very good album that kept the band together and gave them purpose in the late 80s.
Amazing. I <3 Iron Maiden
This song is amazing.
I love your's.
i will not cry ಠ_ಠ
i will not cry ಠ_ಠ
forget it ಥ_ಥ
ugh I am with you. I hate Avenged Sevenfold with the deepest passion imaginable. Words cant describe my deep hatred for them.
I thought the opposite.In general,this album was great.I know,it's not half of "the number of the beast" or " brave new world",but I think this was better than Seventh Son on a Seventh Son.
inci caps was here
i hate your profile picture
so true my friend
lol it's about a journeyman, not about uhh depression? Geez u are a bieber fan, geez kill urself geez geez.... geez...
esta vien chida esta rola
oh, really good argument :))
I agree
one of the best maiden songs in my opinion the clarivoyant is the best
Yeah, that picture is really weird
a so ugly picture for a so beautiful song
Jaja fucking idiot
UP THE IRONS!!!!!!
the cover should have been > a bigger Grim-Eddie standing in the middle of a fire circle
that would have made for a better album cover IMHO . . .
Yes, this is acutally quite a shit album cover, but Iron Maiden has my very favourite album cover also-->Powerslave
To be fair to the band, Dance of Death is the ONLY Maiden cover I can think of that isn't amazing.
The reason it is shit is because they used an unfinished version of the cover
best @ its best...
If this song is 'Emo'. You really got your panties in a bunch brah, better go live a little and look up 'Inspiration' in a dictionary. Need help with that too brah? Try google! Works wonders for idiots like you! xD
