Highgate Songtext / Lyric

Clive Nolan
Highgate Lyrics
Female Chorus:
Show us, show us what is to be
Show us, show us what do you see Male Chorus:
Unleash your muse, set light to the fuse
Reveal who will win

Full Chorus:
Expose who is destined to lose

Amelia:
A journey of length lies in store for you sir
It will lead to the place of your dreams
Your lifeline is long but your luck not so strong
Your wife is not all that she seems

Your head, your heart, your house, your land
Is drawn in paths across your hand

Amelia & Chorus:
Don’t run away…don’t run away
Let us uncover your fate

Gardelle:
Look for the angel

Eva:
Search for the harp

Gardelle, Eva & King:
Time is slipping away

King:
The moon is full

Gardelle, Eva & King:
We must follow the signs to the grave

Gardelle:
Hope is so fragile

Eva:
Only once chance

Gardelle, Eva & King:
We must not let it fade

King:
The moon is full

Gardelle, Eva & King:
We must follow the signs to the grave

Amelia:
The clues are as plain as the nose on your face
You can see them yourself if you look
Your future is etched on the palm of your hand
It is here like a vast open book

Your head, your heart, your house, your land
Is drawn in paths across your hand

Amelia & Chorus:
Don’t run away…don’t run away
Don’t run away…don’t run away

Gardelle:
I will watch over this reveling crowd
You go and find this Skull in the ground

Eva: I see it…it’s over there!

Gardelle:
Get to it fast, there are too many eyes
Someone is bound to see through our disguise

King & Eva:
Here she stands, this marble angel
Harnessing the brightness of the moon

Eva: It’s gone…the Skull has been taken!
King: We were too late. Jagman was here first.
Eva: So, what is left for us to do now?
King: There is still one more artefact to acquire. We must travel to the German Confederation. We can still prevent the Anzeray resurrection, but we have to leave…immediately!

Chorus:
Carpe Noctem…Carpe Noctem
Seize the night – To hell with the consequence
Carpe Noctem – Carpe Noctem
Seize the night – Embrace the experience

Gardelle: It’s time for us to go
Amelia: I have not found Jagman yet!
Gardelle: He has already fled this place, he is long gone
Amelia: No!

The road to enlightenment shows us the way
To insight beyond our beliefs

Amelia & Chorus:
We follow the signs without fear or dismay
For something that makes us complete

Your head, your heart, your house, your land
Is drawn in paths across your hand

Amelia & Chorus:
Don’t run away…don’t run away
Let us uncover your fate
