Tommyknockers Songtext
von Blind Guardian

She′s opening her eyes
To find the thing
By a touch she's lost
It′s waiting for her a long time
The kingdom's lost
Cause there's one nail missing
Playing with fire
Turn of the light
And she will fall down
Playing with her life
But she can′t leave it
There′s one rhyme in her brain

Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, tommyknockers
Knocked at your back door
Tommyknockers


The pain in my head
The cycle awakes
I'm on my way to Oz
I want to drink and she wants to dig
She′s in trouble, oh I know
There's something going wrong
Tommyknockers on their way
What′s up in Leighton Street?

Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, tommyknockers
Knocked at your back door
Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, tommyknockers
Knocked at your back door

I'm the hero, I′m back
With weapons and with magic spells
I'll seddle every task
An old, ill and drunken guy

The moon is full of blood
I've found her not, not far from home
I should better get away from here
She′s on her way to be another one
Playing with fire
She can read my thoughts
It′s too late
Playing with her life
Tommyknockers brought her trouble now


The ship in the earth I touch
A vibration is filling me
And music is in my head
Nose is bleeding and my fall down filled me up with pain
What's that cry?
You′ll be like a tommyknocker
I will be like you
But there's something going wrong
I read it in your face

Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, tommyknockers
Knocked at your back door
Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, tommyknocers
Back at your back door
Tommyknockers knocked at your back door
Tommyknockers knocked at your back door
