Voivod - Le Pont Noir lyrics

Venus shines so ever bright

Deep in the woods under the stars

How did I come to get this fa

Have this feeling...what will I find

Around the corner of my mind?

A thousand trees of creeping sin

Dead leaves blowing in the wind

I'm whistling an old melody

To keep the beast away from me

I hear the call of croaking frogs

Answering me lost in the fog

I tell myself, everything's fine

Here in these woods, for the first time

Uh, ohh!

Out in the dark, a shadow sound

Fear to look, but turn around

I realize I'm face to face

Two yellow eyes, an evil gaze

Ugly blood hound, no wagging tail

How long has he been on my trail?

Down to the bridge, he's leading me

What is it he wants me to see?

Uh, ohh!

Already we've arrived, Here I am

There's the bridge, Where's the man, What a scam!

That story 'bout the bridge isn't true

I'm enjoying myself, what a view!

They say the bridge is not what it is

No one ever comes back...so they say

What could happen to me, anyway?

>From away, a tall man comes to me...

Has he been here waiting...just for me?

He says there's no more fishing in the lake

But one thing for sure...I'm the catch of the day!

This is what happens

When one looks for gold

Turn'd into gray stone

And down deep you are thrown!!

All this is over (X4
