The Terror

Lyrics

Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back and set her free Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back. Go back to her please Jacky-boy washes upon the shore Battered an tired but back from the war Young and restless and brave and looking for love Helena watches mysteriously Elusive and cold; oh who could she be Witch in the woods insists she's not there at all Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back and set her free Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back. Go back to her please Castle of Stephan and baron Boris He's tortured and old, but something's amiss His wife had been gone 20 years, dead by his hand He had returned from a war far away But to his chagrin on that joyous day His wife lived in his house with another man Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back and set her free Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back. Go back to her please With Karloff and Nickelson looking for ghosts Stephan plays the role of a dubious host Threatening Jacky-boy's life before he finds the truth That Helena'd hatched a devious plan For her to be reunite with her man He must drown himself in the crypt with the wife of his youth Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back and set her free Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back. Go back to her please But Helena's lover, Eric was, in fact The son of the witch living out on the tract Now seeking reveng on Boris for the death of her son She'd summoned a specter to tempt the old man Into killing himself so that he would be damned But Eric had taken his place back on day one Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back and set her free Tonight, her soul longs for release Go back. Go back to her please So Jack rushed back to save everyone Hoping that when it was all said and done They all escape with at least an intact soul But soon everyone but Jack was dead And he probably got messed up in the head From kissing Helena's corpse out on the knoll
