Murders In The Rue Morgue Steve Harris Lyrics

====================================

I remember it as plain as day

although it happened in the dark of the night.

I was strolling through the streets of Paris

and it was cold it was starting to rain.

And then I heard a piercing scream

and I rushed to the scene of the crime

but all I found was the butchered remains

of two girls lay side by side.

Murders in the Rue Morgue

someone call the Gendarmes

Murders in the Rue Morgue

run before the killers go free

There's some people coming down the street

at last there's someone heard my call

I can't understand why they're pointing at me

I never done nothing at all.

But I must have got some blood on my hands

because everyone's shouting at me

I can't speak French so I couldn't explain

and like a fool I started running away.

Murders in the Rue Morgue

someone call the Gendarmes

Murders in the Rue Morgue

am I ever gonna be free.

And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law.

All France is looking for me.

I've gotta find my way across the border for sure

down the south to Italy.

Murders in the Rue Morgue

I'm never going home.

Well I made it to the border at last

But I can't erase the scene from my mind

Anytime somebody stares at me, well

I just start running blind

Well I'm moving through the shadows at night

Away from the staring eyes

Any day they'll be looking for me

'Cause I know I show the signs of...

Murders in the Rue Morgue

running from the Gendarmes

Murders in the Rue Morgue

running from the arms of the law

Murders in the Rue Morgue

running from the Gendarmes

Murders in the Rue Morgue

am I ever gonna be free

It took so long and I'm getting so tired

I'm running out of places to hide

Should I return to the scene of the crime

Where the two young victims died

If I could go to somebody for help

It'd get me out of trouble for sure

But I know that it's on my mind

That my doctor said I've done it before.

Murders in the Rue Morgue

they're never gonna find me

Murders in the Rue Morgue

I'm never going home
