Lyrics:
If they made me a king,
I'd be but a slave to you,
If I had everything,
I'd still be a slave to you.

If I ruled the night,
Stars and moon so bright,
Still I'd turn for light to you.

If the world to me bowed,
Yet humbly I'd cling to you.
If my friends were a crowd,
I'd turn on my knees to you.

If I ruled the earth,
What would life be worth,
If I hadn't the right to you.

(instrumental interlude)

If the world to me bowed,
Yet humbly I'd cling to you.
If my friends were a crowd,
I'd turn on my knees to you.

If I ruled the earth,
What would life be worth,
If I hadn't the right to you.
