House of Nevermore Lyrics


There was a time when I knew we’d be lonely

No last kiss then we had to move away

We had our chance and we burned in the starlight

Then our song was carried on the wind

I can still remember, I can still see your face from before

Always remember, some love leads to the House of Nevermore

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

With your eyes as black as a moonless night

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

You carried my cross and I let you down

Let you down

Let you down

There was a time when I called you my lover

That time has passsed and I won’t see you anymore

I keep the pain of the night far behind me

Another road to the House of Nevermore

I still remember the curse and the sting of your kiss

Don’t cry for mercy, you know that’s one thing I’l never give

I will never giver

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

With your eyes as black as a moonless night

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

Nail me to your cross and let me cry

Always remember, some love leads to the House of Nevermore

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

With your eyes as black as a moonless night

Sweet angel of the street, come dance with me

You carried my cross and I let you down

I let you down

Let you down

If I take the road to the House of Nevermore

Who will be waiting to open up the door

I fall asleep in the House of Nevermore

If I should wake, will I find the door?
