Blackmore's Night Crowning of the King lyrics

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 old 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
