Fever Dreams

Dio · Magica [2000]

Lately when my demons drag the night across my eyes

I just can't seem to fight it anymore

Yield unto temptation and be ruler of the world

But it seems that I have heard that song before

And the voices begin to sing - Come home

I have seen some evil as I've walked upon the earth

But this is way beyond what eyes can see

Wicked is as wicked does and if I lose control

Is this the way that hell is gonna be

Have I fallen too far to rise

Been burning too long in the fire

Then it all falls down - Tearing the night away

It must be - Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Now before my demons roll the night across my eyes

I tremble as I wait perhaps to sin

Yield unto temptation and be ruler of the world

And all I do is let the beast come in

Have I fallen too far to rise

I've been standing too long in the fire

Let it all fall down

Tearing the night away

It must be - Fever dreams

From the outside - Fever dreams

Oh, fever dreams

Fever dreams

Ooh-ooh

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever dreams

Fever Dreams
