The Castle Is Haunted

John West

Dark shadow hangin' over me
What on Earth could those noises be?
Footsteps walls that creak and moan
All by myself but I'm not alone

Now this I find
They're giving me some kind sign
It's not in my mind

A quiet place I could call my own
That's all I ever wanted
Heartbeat in the walls of stone
The caste is haunted

I feel the presence always watching me
And every night I hear the awful screams
Soft whispers bathed by eerie light
Can't see the fang but I feel the bite

Now this I find
The papers are all sealed and signed
It's not in my mind

A quiet place I could call my own
That's all I ever wanted
Heartbeat in the walls of stone
The caste is haunted

I tell myself that it's all a dream
How could a house made of stone laugh and scream
Apparitions dance in candlelight
Eyes of fire glowing rebes of white

A quiet place I could call my own
That's all I ever wanted
Heartbeat in the walls of stone
The castle is haunted

A quiet place I could call my own
That's all I ever wanted
Heartbeat in the walls of stone
The castle is haunted
