Lyrics Mercyful Fate

Mercyful Fate

Nightmare

Am I awake or is this just a dream?

I had a nightmare, some sort of vision

I was stuck in an empty room

When the black book appeared

The lights were dim, but the face in the book

Was in daylight

Eyes of fire staring at me

It's the eyes of a woman

And I see, on her spirit

Steppin' out of the book

Solo: Michael Denner

I hear her callin' for her coven to come

There's a light in the doorway

Entering shadows whose number is 13

They do the sign of the Devil's seed

I'm in the middle of a magic ring

Somebody tell me, what's goin' on

"Only we know the secret of the curse

that you bear"

Listen, they sing, the coven sings

Night after night I hear them sing

No, they're still here, I can hear them again

Night after night I have this dream

"You are insane!"

"You are insane!"

"You are insane!"

"You are insane!"

"You're only living on borrowed time from

your fate"

Solo: Hank Shermann
