Mercyful Fate - Listen to the Bell lyrics

rate me

(Music: Shermann/Lyrics: Diamond)

Up in the hills where the sun goes down

There's an old black church and a broken town

The sun goes down

The trees are dead and the river is dry

And they blame it all on the old belfry

The devils cry

Why? Why? Why? Listen to the bell

Why? Why? Why?

Listen to the bell and it just might tell you why

SOLO: Denner

It's a dark and lonely road to the old belfry

And if you're alone, you'll never survive...No..No..No

Deep...in the shadows

Everywhere I hear the devils cry

Why? Why? Do the devils cry?

Why? Why? Why? Do the devils cry?

SOLO: Shermann

I have seen the gateway that leads beyond

So far away from the burning sun

I've seen the Maker, I've seen the Taker

I've seen whatever you call THEM there

The blazing ruby eyes in the old belfry

Listen to the bell if you wanna know why

You gotta listen to the bell

And then you just might hear the sound of HELL

Why?...Why?...Why?...You gotta tell me why

Why?...Why? Why do the devils cry?

Why?...Why? Why do the devils cry?
