Lyrics Shadow of the Vampire - Argyle Goolsby

Shadow of the Vampire

The sun is setting
It’s imperative our efforts don’t delay
We pack our bags, and check our tags
Onward.
The star awaits
The camera films a countryside
Trapped in the realms of fallen night
Soon we approach The Stranger’s coach
Our horses weaken in their stride
And then we feel…
The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting
The Shadow of the figure forlorn
The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting
Oh, a star is reborn
(Come alive!)
A verbal pact mutually backed
Obeying boundaries of his part
Or so we thought, but now we’re caught
Within the plot’s thick bloody heart
The crew is dead, the sets are red
We’re next.
The camera comes to life
There’s no premiere film of the year
Only the camera’s glassy eye reflects the tale of…
The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting
The Shadow of the figure forlorn
The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting
Oh, This star is reborn!
NIM VIND SOLO
The Shadow of the Vampire- waiting
The Shadow of the figure forlorn
The Shadow of the Vampire’s waiting
Oh, This star is reborn!
You cannot direct the director of your destiny
Your scene lies on the cutting floor
Of his shadow
