Through glens and thickets, o’er moors and heaths The funeral procession, marches on O’er fens and swamplands, and down winding paths To the destined hallowed ground
From dawn till twilight and on through the night The treacherous death parade continues on The arduous trek to the burial site Only guided by candlelight
Haunted by fairies and wraiths And spirits of the deceased Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
Flowing like rivers along the straight ground The flitting spectres wretched sound Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
Haunted by fairies and wraiths And spirits of the deceased Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
Flowing like rivers along the straight ground The flitting spectres wretched sound Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
No other route or path the we may take Unploughed and bare they cannot stray Non-linear trails are carefully laid Labyrinths and mazes the wraiths dissuade
At the journeys end, with the cemetery in sight The coffin is set down on the stone to rest And at the toll of the lych gate bell The travellers now rest, another to peace in death
Haunted by fairies and wraiths And spirits of the deceased Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse road
Flowing like rivers along the straight ground The flitting spectres wretched sound Even the dead may not be at rest On the old corpse roadTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
