Where Voodoo Sleeps Songtext
von Ghoultown

Seven days from Halloween in the year of ′91
I met a girl whose witchy ways caught me with her touch
We rode the nights beyond the fetters of our chains
To a land upon the coast where magic burns like flames

New Orleans bound
That's where we can be found
Among the ghosts and the graves and the voodoo queens
She comes to me in a fever dream
Riding southern winds for eternity
In the land where voodoo sleeps
In the land where voodoo sleeps

Revelry upon the streets where faces paint the night
We tipped the drinks and laughed the laugh until the morning light
Then to the shadows we returned within our tryst
As magic swells an ageless spell upon our haunted kiss

We were bathed in the moonlight fires where rituals are sung
We were bound in the crimson flames where lovers melt as one
Feeling so alive inside the heat of our embrace
On the sultry midnight coast the passion comes in waves


By the lantern light

Autumn has fallen, spirits are callin
The harvest closing in

Sinister faces, skeletal traces
A chill is in the air

Whoa ohh ohhh

Haunted places, evil embraces
Devils drawing near

The fading twilight, the rise of moonlight
All hallows eve is here

Whoa ohh ohhh

It′s the season of the witch
The dawning of the dead
All hallow's eve
Darkest of nights
Shadows come to life
In the lantern light
Rebirth in my soul
Let's ride tonight

By the lantern light


Walking corpses, unholy forces
Hide behind a mask

Ghostly voices, hoofbeats of horses
Let the night begin

Whoa ohh ohhh
