Lyrics: Mercyful Fate. Legend Of The Headless Rider.
I'm an undertaker
I'm a ghost in the night
I'm a coffin shaker
This graveyard site is mine
Take a look at the sky
See that evil eye
Tonight the moon is cold as ice
Oh, yeah, cold as ice, oh, yeah
There's a black horse waiting
Will he be on time?
The graveyard's shaking
Should I turn my eyes and walk away
Take a look at the sky
See that evil eye
Tonight the headless rider rides
Midnight
Let the church bell ring
It's midnight, All Hallow's Eve
It's midnight, All Hallow's Eve
I see him rising from his grave
I see him rising from his grave
On All Hallow's Eve
Never to forget
He rides the open field
In search of his head
My God, he's so grotesque
Should I stay?
My God, a scythe in his hand
No way
He's coming, I'm running
He's coming, I'm running
Deep inside I know I'm the one
He's coming, I'm running
Deep inside I know this is wrong
Help me, I'm falling down
I'm falling down
I'm looking up
I'm in a grave
In this hollow grave
I can smell that he's near
Will I ever never make it?
Will I shed a tear?
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
In this hollow grave
I see a bony hand
Don't you ever never take it
It's the key to his land
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
No
The mind in my headless body
Seems to be chained to the inside
I cannot move towards the light
And as he rides away
Leaving me with this curse
I hear his laughter in the distance
Actually it's my laughter
He stole my head
Does this mean I'll be the one next year?
I'm a ghost in the night
I'm a coffin shaker
This graveyard site is mine
Take a look at the sky
See that evil eye
Tonight the moon is cold as ice
Oh, yeah, cold as ice, oh, yeah
There's a black horse waiting
Will he be on time?
The graveyard's shaking
Should I turn my eyes and walk away
Take a look at the sky
See that evil eye
Tonight the headless rider rides
Midnight
Let the church bell ring
It's midnight, All Hallow's Eve
It's midnight, All Hallow's Eve
I see him rising from his grave
I see him rising from his grave
On All Hallow's Eve
Never to forget
He rides the open field
In search of his head
My God, he's so grotesque
Should I stay?
My God, a scythe in his hand
No way
He's coming, I'm running
He's coming, I'm running
Deep inside I know I'm the one
He's coming, I'm running
Deep inside I know this is wrong
Help me, I'm falling down
I'm falling down
I'm looking up
I'm in a grave
In this hollow grave
I can smell that he's near
Will I ever never make it?
Will I shed a tear?
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
In this hollow grave
I see a bony hand
Don't you ever never take it
It's the key to his land
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
Oh, it's strange
How every thing's changing
Now my life is fading away
No
The mind in my headless body
Seems to be chained to the inside
I cannot move towards the light
And as he rides away
Leaving me with this curse

Actually it's my laughter

Does this mean I'll be the one next year?
