- Kingston Town Lyrics / with translationsThe night seems to fade
But the moonlight lingers on
There are wonders for everyone, oh
The stars shine so bright
But they’re fading after dawn
There is magic in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see the girls at play
When I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see the girls at play, yeah
When I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
But the moonlight lingers on
There are wonders for everyone, oh
The stars shine so bright
But they’re fading after dawn
There is magic in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see the girls at play
When I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see the girls at play, yeah
When I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
She’ll be waiting in Kingston Town
