Lyrics

[Verse 1] When the snow turns black I'll be back, I'll be here Between the blinking of an eye When the screams attack Welcome back, cavalier Before the newborn starts to cry And it's all in the eyes of a child Flaming star or the call of the wild [Chorus] Black Christmas, Devil's Eve The whispers in the breeze Black Christmas, Devil's wine The river bleeds in time [Verse 2] Where the red clouds chase That's the place in a dream Across the sun's hot blazing sky Where he hides his face In disgrace for his queen He must choose the way she dies And they say when his eyes turn to green He'll awake living sin never seen [Verse 3] Watches over you That's the clue to believe An instant and you're hypnotised Watch his eyes look through False or true to deceive You take his place, you're crucified And they say when his eyes turn to black Will he stay or return to his damned infernal pack? [Chorus] Black Christmas, Devil's Eve The whispers in the breeze Black Christmas, Devil's wine The river bleeds in time Black Christmas, Devil's Eve The whispers, the whispers Black Christmas, Devil's wine Black Christmas
