"The Raven" lyrics:
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 / Thus quoth the raven, nevermore
Quoth the raven, nevermore / Thus quoth the raven, nevermore
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore, never
Nevermore, nevermore, never
Nevermore, nevermore, never
Nevermore, nevermore, nevermore, never
Nevermore, nevermore, never
Nevermore, nevermore...
... nevermore.
