Queen in Black Lyrics

The fool danced around at the gathering of the court
The sweetest virgin so beautiful sang
Drums declared outside a war was fought
Throughout the land the church bells rang

The very next day the king rode out to fight
Knights dressed in steel riding by his side
The battle went on and on throughout the night
As the clock struck twelve the king had died

The king is dead! Nothing can bring him back
The king is dead! Queen's dressed in black
Now she stands alone
Taking over the throne

And as the world slowly turned around
The queen ruled the land by her own hand
But for the queen no happiness was found
Without her king she ruled the land

The king is dead! Nothing can bring him back
The king is dead! Queen's dressed in black
Standing alone, taking over the throne

Solo

The king is dead! Nothing can bring him back
The king is dead! Queen's dressed in black
The king is dead! Nothing can bring him back
The king is dead! Queen's dressed in black
