Billy Wells - Shadow Of the Mountain Vox Lyrics

Parked out on a lonely road
Listening to the radio
Strangers on a one-night stand
On a mattress in my Chevy van
Suddenly the stars blew out
The moon was swallowed by a cloud
And outside in the dead of night
The wind began to whisper

Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
It's too late to run; you're never gonna leave here
Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
When the sun goes down, the boogeyman will get you

The lightning flashed across the sky
I saw the devil in her eye
I felt a chill run up my spine
When she pressed her icy lips on mine
Her teeth were bared in a fiendish grin
Her body crawled against my skin
And outside in the dead of night
The lonely wind kept whispering

Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
It's too late to run; you're never gonna leave here
Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
When the sun goes down, the boogeyman will get you

I closed my eyes and I started to scream
Slowly I came out of what I thought was a dream
I shook my head and I started to laugh
'Til I turned and saw my baby chopped in half
Then I saw a reflection in the mirror
Of the only face I thought I'd never see
I looked into the eyes of the devil
And the devil was me

Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
It's too late to run; you're never gonna leave here
Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
It's too late to run; you're never gonna leave here
Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
When the sun goes down, the boogeyman will get you

Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
It's too late to run; you're never gonna leave here
Don't you know you're in the shadow of the mountain
When the sun goes down, the boogeyman will get you
