The Crypt Of Montmartre Lyrics

[The valley]

[Musica: Eddy Antonini e Roberto Potenti]

[Testi: Giovanni De Giorgi]



Once upon a time in a distant, peaceful valley there was a village 

in which people lived in love and friendship together. 

No one had to complain about anything. 

Men loved their women, and children were grown with the sweetest loving
cares.

One day, a foreign man came on the town. 

He was a friar. And really, a weird kind of one. 

He didn't talk to anyone, till he reached the town square, 

where he called all the people, telling he had something to say.

"Listen to me! This valley looks like Heaven, but, believe me, 

soon the angels will be turned into demons. 

I'm warning you! Take care of your children, 

take care them far from this valley until they grow. 

Otherwise this Heaven will become Hell!"

People didn't believe the prophecy, they just thought the friar must be crazy,


and didn't listen any further, while he kept on repeating 

there was a curse hanging over their heads 

and that they should mind their children.

Across that night, all the children vanished. 

No traces could be found. No clues. No children. 

They accused the friar, and took him to the shaman, 

where he explained the curse had become real and told them what to do.

Only gnomes could bring the children back. 

So they had to create their gnomes. 

The only way to do that was to catch a child's dream.

People brought the few remaining children to the wood, 

where the friar put them to sleep and entered their dreams. 

There he found the gnomes, and told them they had to come out 

and find the other children. 

Gnomes followed the vanished children's dreams 

and finally found them and brought them back from an evil nightmare 

created by a witch who burnt to Hell, won by dreams.

Since that day children have been the most precious thing of the valley, 

and gnomes always kept on guarding over their dreams.

[Testi: Eddy Antonini]



Thunders,

the great sound of thunder

can bring me back again.

Lightnings,

the colours of lightning

can drive our soul insane.

Music,

the spirit of music

come from a gate of world.

Mystery,

we are caught by the mystery

until the next day is born.



Come in this temple of fear

I'm trying to save your life.

Walk on the line made of tears

'cause I'll be black and white.

Don't be afraid, child...

just give me one more time.



Fire,

the warm of the fire

will burn the memories.

Stormwind,

we are lost in the stormwind

they are really on their knees.

Spirits,

that shine in their limits

quickly fade away.

Monsters,

fight against the monsters

before it will be too late.



Come in this temple of fear

I'm trying to save your life.

Walk on the line made of tears

'cause I'll be black and white.

Don't be afraid, child...

just give me one more time.



The Crypt of Montmartre is fading away

the secret of Christ will die with our pray

the poisoned tears will run through my veins

please save from the dark the Crypt of Montmartre.



The Crypt of Montmartre will burn with our pray

and the time will sign the end of your days

the legend of Devil will possess your heart

please bring out the Princess from the Crypt of Montmartre.



I'm trying to save us

time has come

but we really seem to find the way.

No one can save us

time has come

we are really going to find this way.



The Crypt of Montmartre is fading away

the secret of Christ will die with our pray

the poisoned tears will run through my veins

please save from the dark the Crypt of Montmartre.



The Crypt of Montmartre will burn with our pray

and the time will sign the end of your days

the legend of Devil will possess your heart

please bring out the Princess from the Crypt of Montmartre.



The Crypt of Montmartre is fading away

come and save the Princess and the human race

please follow the traces, escape from the dark.

Mankind can survive in the Crypt of Montmartre.
