You stood 00:17
in the belltower 00:19
But now you're gone 00:23
So who knows 00:27
all the sights 00:32
of Notre Dame? 00:35
They've got the stars for the gallant hearts 00:38
And the gallows for the fallen ones 00:42
I'm the replacement for your part 00:44
All I want to do is forget 00:48
You, friend 00:52
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 00:54
Won't leave it alone 00:57
The first time in my life 01:01
I keep the lights on to ease my soul 01:05
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 01:10
Won't leave it alone 01:13
I don't know 01:18
Is this the right thing to do? 01:21
They've cursed me 01:28
in your things 01:32
I feel guilty 01:34
And retracing 01:37
all the scenes 01:41
of your hit 01:43
Oh, God, you needed the leading role 01:46
It wasn't me who made you go, though 01:50
All I want to do is forget 01:54
You, friend 01:58
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 02:02
Won't leave it alone 02:06
The first time in my life 02:10
I keep the lights on to ease my soul 02:14
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 02:19
Won't leave it alone 02:22
I don't know 02:27
Is this the right thing to do? 02:30
Who calls me 02:53
from the other side 02:56
of the street? 02:59
And who taps me 03:03
on the shoulder? 03:07
I turn around, but you're gone. 03:09
I've got a hunch that you're following 03:13
To get your own back on me 03:16
All I want to do is forget 03:20
You, friend 03:25
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 03:29
Won't leave it alone 03:33
The first time in my life 03:37
I keep the lights on to ease my soul 03:41
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror 03:45
Won't leave it alone 03:49
I don't know 03:53
Is this the right thing to do? 03:57

Lyrics & Translation

[English]
You stood
in the belltower
But now you're gone
So who knows
all the sights
of Notre Dame?
They've got the stars for the gallant hearts
And the gallows for the fallen ones
I'm the replacement for your part
All I want to do is forget
You, friend
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
The first time in my life
I keep the lights on to ease my soul
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
I don't know
Is this the right thing to do?
They've cursed me
in your things
I feel guilty
And retracing
all the scenes
of your hit
Oh, God, you needed the leading role
It wasn't me who made you go, though
All I want to do is forget
You, friend
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
The first time in my life
I keep the lights on to ease my soul
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
I don't know
Is this the right thing to do?
Who calls me
from the other side
of the street?
And who taps me
on the shoulder?
I turn around, but you're gone.
I've got a hunch that you're following
To get your own back on me
All I want to do is forget
You, friend
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
The first time in my life
I keep the lights on to ease my soul
Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror
Won't leave it alone
I don't know
Is this the right thing to do?
