BLACKMORE'S NIGHT
"Crowning Of The King"
(Ritchie Blackmore)

Down in the village streets
The air is full of wonder
Fair smiles greet the crowning of the king
Come hither, gather round
A joyous time's upon us
Trumpets sound the crowning of the king

Fast away the olde
Time too quickly passes
Shine the light of new for the crowing of the king
Come forth those who wish
For change and change becoming
Welcome with every breath the crowning of the king

Sweet is the hour and sweeter still the time we spend together
Celebrate the noble will the crowning of the king
To sing and dance and sing again with honor and with splendor
All from far and near - see the crowning of the king!

Step to the dance of hope
Of courtly wiles and pleasure
As the star of the morn shines brightly for the king
Pray thee lift the veil
From those who came before us
Merriment will prevail for the crowning of the king

Sweet is the hour and sweeter still the time we spend together
Celebrate the noble will the crowning of the king
To sing and dance and sing again with honor and with splendor
All from far and near - see the crowning of the king!
The crowning of the king!

Jesters spin and play
The laughter sounds like music
What a perfect day for the crowning of the king
Here in the village streets
The air is full of wonder
Fair smiles greet the crowning of the king
Come and see the crowning of the king!
