Ride To Hell Lyrics

Horslips Ride To Hell

[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...
