Horslips - Ride to Hell lyrics

[Verse 1] You'll find him hard to recognise Cos he won't dress in black He wears a suit of gold lamé With velvet front and back But he can touch your trembling heart Can touch your very soul He'll take you with him when he leaves He'll make your dreams turn old [Repeat Verse 1] [Verse 2] Some people say that he's a fiend A devil in disguise He'll promise love and happiness Bright lights before your eyes And still you know you can't refuse No matter what you think You just got to taste the glamour Ovations as you sink [Chorus] Ride on your nightmare On your ride to hell Ride on your nightmare On your ride Ride on your nightmare On your ride to hell Ride on your nightmare On your ride [Verse 3] He alone can read the signs And he can read them well But where he gets his power There's no one here can tell So if you're out alone at night Be sure to take a friend Cos it gets vicious lonely In a world that never ends [Chorus] [Verse 4] He's sure to come a calling When the shades of night are drawn A twisted, black thorn in his hand He'll linger until dawn You wish to stay forever young But only he knows how It's his blessing, it's his curse And it's your decision now...
