    Ok having listened to the song a few times now, I think this is a close estimation of the lyrics, if anyone has any suggestions, please post a reply
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    I want you to understand
    What you gotta do with me
    People say they don't wanna know
    What you're gonna do with me
    Well I know that you just gotta go
    To the hall of misery
    Please don't start playing with my soul
    Let my soul go free
    Yeah!
    Now I sit here on my own looking in the sky at night
    Then I see a silver star come down and take me for a ride
    Then I look into your face, what do I seek for redemption
    Then you know your children too will go there with redemption
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    And I know what's going on
    You people don't really know
    When I fall in to your place
    What am I to do?
    If you go on with your load
    Don't you ever say
    Black Sabbath man with your hair so long
    Didn't realise what he said
    Yeah!

    I wouldn't call this an alternate version, per se. It sounds like Ozzy's just improvising to get a feel for the vocal melody. This was the first album where they started writing in the recording studio.

      @@davidtoddmickens5558 Yeah, this is before he did that lol. These lyrics are literal nonsense, because they are only there for the sake of feeling out the vocal lines and what syllables might sound good.

      This is meaningless babble, because they hadn't yet figured out what the meaning was going to be. It doesn't even rhyme. This is a very normal thing for songwriters to do, literally make up nonsense words to figure out what might sound good, and usually something interesting will emerge and from that they get an idea of what the song might be about. The word children seemed to stick out in this case. Ozzy would make up words just to put something to tape or to ear for geezer to then go in and write lyrics for.

    I always loved the original version, but this demo is pretty top notch. Now all we need is a video that shows the actual lyrics. I see some tried to decipher the lyrics phonetically, and it's probably very very close, but I know I'm not alone in wanting to know the actual lyrics to this version.

    This must be one that Ozzy wrote the lyrics to. They said he was really good at coming up with a melody for their songs making up some words on the go. Then Geezer would be the one who would come up with the classic lyrics we all know.
