The Raven Lyrics By The Alan Parsons Project

    the clock struck midnight
    and through my sleeping
    i heard a tapping at my door
    i looked but nothing lay in the darkness
    and so i turned inside once more

    to my amazement
    there stood a raven
    whose shadow hung above my door
    then through the silence
    it spoke the one word
    that i shall hear for evermore

    nevermore
    thus quoth the raven nevermore

    and still the raven remains in my room
    no matter how much i implore
    no words can soothe him
    no prayer remove him
    and i must hear for evermore

    quoth the raven nevermore
    nevermore
    thus quoth the raven nevermore
