Voivod - Le Pont Noir lyrics

rate me

I'm going to the bridge tonight Venus shines so ever bright Deep in the woods under the stars How did I come to get this far? Have this feeling...what will I find Around the corner of my mind? A thousand trees of creeping sin Dead leaves blowing in the wind I'm whistling an old melody To keep the beast away from me I hear the call of croaking frogs Answering me lost in the fog I tell myself, everything's fine Here in these woods, for the first time Uh, ohh! Out in the dark, a shadow sound Fear to look, but turn around I realize I'm face to face Two yellow eyes, an evil gaze Ugly blood hound, no wagging tail How long has he been on my trail? Down to the bridge, he's leading me What is it he wants me to see? Uh, ohh! Already we've arrived, Here I am There's the bridge, Where's the man, What a scam! That story 'bout the bridge isn't true I'm enjoying myself, what a view! They say the bridge is not what it is No one ever comes back...so they say What could happen to me, anyway? From away, a tall man comes to me... Has he been here waiting...just for me? He says there's no more fishing in the lake But one thing for sure...I'm the catch of the day! This is what happens When one looks for gold Turn'd into gray stone And down deep you are thrown!! All this is over [X4]
