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 plead to you
If my friends were a crowd
I’d turn in my need to you
If I ruled the earth
What would life be worth
If I hadn’t the right to you?
