Arrival [Reissue] - King Diamond

Through the summer rain of 1845

The coach had finally arrived

To the valley where the crossroads meet below

And where all darkness seems to grow

People blame it on the hill

The hill where no one dares to go (The mansion)

Where no one dares to go

The coach had stopped

And from the window you could see

Seven horsemen in the night

Miriam Natias and Jonathan Lafey

Saw the magic in their eyes

They were in for a surprise

The darkness would soon be complete

A horseman came forth from the dark

«We know you’ve come to inherit what’s yours

(The mansion)

Take our advice and go back on this night

If you refuse eighteen will become nine»

Eighteen is nine

Eighteen is nine

Jonathan laughed and said, «Get out of my way»

«I don’t believe a word you say»

The seven horsemen disappeared into the night

«Someday you’ll need our help my friend»

I think poor Jonathan was scared

Eighteen is actually nine

It stuck in his mind
