King of Twilight Lyrics
[Intro: Nicko McBrain]
Are you ready? Have I missed anybody here?
One, two, one, two, three, four!
[Part I: Crying in the Dark]
[Verse 1: Bruce Dickinson]
I've been trying, trying so hard
I've been crying, crying in the dark
Don't forsake me, the time of mine is near
Don't ever break me and the world that brought me here
[Verse 2: Bruce Dickinson]
Sick and lonely, waiting for the dawn
Sick and lonely, wondering what to do
Can you hear me, when I say to you
"You give me your hand, I'll give mine to you"?
[Part II: King of Twilight]
[Chorus: Bruce Dickinson]
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 1: Bruce Dickinson]
When the king of twilight shows me
I will take ten steps to see
Forty leaves I pay for freedom
[Refrain: Bruce Dickinson]
For a chance to be free
For a chance to be free
[Chorus: Bruce Dickinson]
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 2: Bruce Dickinson]
When the king of twilight calls you
Take a step and you will see
We all need a quick solution
[Refrain: Bruce Dickinson]
For a chance to be free
For a chance to be free
[Bridge: Bruce Dickinson]
Free!
[Chorus: Bruce Dickinson]
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 3: Bruce Dickinson]
When the king of twilight shows me
I will take ten steps to see
Forty leaves I pay for freedom
[Refrain: Bruce Dickinson]
For a chance to be free
For a chance to be free
