King Crimson - The Court Of The Crimson King Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The dance of the puppets
  • The rusted chains of prison moons
  • Are shattered by the sun.
  • I walk a road, horizons change
  • The tournaments begun.
  • The purple piper plays his tune,
  • The choir softly sing;
  • Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
  • For the court of the crimson king.
  • The keeper of the city keys
  • Put shutters on the dreams.
  • I wait outside the pilgrims door
  • With insufficient schemes.
  • The black queen chants
  • The funeral march,
  • The cracked brass bells will ring;
  • To summon back the fire witch
  • To the court of the crimson king.
  • The gardener plants an evergreen
  • Whilst trampling on a flower.
  • I chase the wind of a prism ship
  • To taste the sweet and sour.
  • The pattern juggler lifts his hand;
  • The orchestra begin.
  • As slowly turns the grinding wheel
  • In the court of the crimson king.
  • On soft gray mornings widows cry
  • The wise men share a joke;
  • I run to grasp divining signs
  • To satisfy the hoax.
  • The yellow jester does not play
  • But gentle pulls the strings
  • And smiles as the puppets dance
  • In the court of the crimson king.
