Lyrics King Diamond

King Diamond

Black Horsemen

SOLO: Mike

So there they stood at the top of the stairs

Miriam in the mood, Jonathan was scared

Gazing into the dark, Jonathan saw the star

For a second he turned his back

And she was there like a ghost

She him hard and clean

To the bottom of the stairs

"Now we're finally alone, Miriam

Abigail is here to stay"

The birth of Abigail would soon be realized

The second coming of a devil in disguise

And the moon did not shine

It was darker than ever before

On this sacred night

The soul of Miriam was crying out in pain

Remembering the day, arrival in the rain

The pain of labour was so strong that Miriam died

The final seeing was a pair of yellow eyes

You can still hear her screaming

If You're walking the stairs in July

Riding from beyond

The 7 Horsemen would arrive before the dawn

Servants of the count, when Abigail was born the first time

SOLO: Andy

Oh no... they found her in the sarcophagus

Baby Abigail was eating, Oh I cannot tell You

"Take her... and bring her

To the chapel in the forest

So go now... The ceremony

And the coffin's waiting"

The Black Horsemen

That's the end of another lullaby

Time has come for me to say Goodnight

SOLO: Mike
