When love was king Once was a kingdom, far far away. Love was the rule of the day. Nothing more nothing less Than to give your friend your best. There's much more story that I could tell To make the hardest hearts swell. This is the story when love was

If I could only reach you If I could make you smile That would really be a breakthrough Somehow I have to make this final breakthrough When love breaks up When the dawn light wakes up A new life is born

Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This love's too good last And I'm too old to dream, yeah Don't grow up too fast And don't embrace the past This life's too good to last And I'm too young to care This life could be the last

Roll the dice Come roll the dice Don't you think this could be paradise? Let's roll the dice on love Baby, let's roll the dice on love It's just you and I Underneath one of those perfect skies

La la la la la la love And I won't be made a fool of Don't call this love La la la love If you could envision The meaning of a tragedy, ooh You might be surprised to hear it's you and me When it comes down to it You never made the most of it, ooh

How could this love Ever turning Never turn its eye on me Ever changing Never change the way I feel Lonesome tears I can't cry them anymore I can't think of what they're for Oh they ruin me every time

But what do I know? Love can change the world in a moment I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene We could change this whole world with a piano Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go I'm just a boy with a one-man show No university, no

You could be doing anything you dream of If you believe in the things that make you strong Maybe, I know it's just maybe And we're only dreaming For how this will go, o-o-oh We could be doing anything that we love Just be carried by the way the wind

If we gave it just one more try Maybe we could stop this goodbye I know through all this pain Baby just breathe in, breathe out Before you turn around, just slow down Think of all the love we've made Somehow somewhere love remains So baby just breathe

When are you coming home, my love? Well I've been alone far too long 'Cause this heavy heart, oh, how it's yearned 'Cause I've been alone far too long I miss you more than you could know I watch the grass on the back lawn grow And I will not allow winds
