It never rained, the Sun was always shining Every traffic light Was always There was a time when Every door was open The universe was mine Or so it seemed Ever roll was seven or eleven That it would ever End never crossed my I was flying higher Than the Heavens Back when the World was mine
[CHORUS:] Sometimes man can't see When he has it all Take a look at me how he mighty fall Once I ruled the earth Once upon a time When I had your love the world was mine
Oh the changes I'd make if I had the power How could have so much And be so blind But at least A bright and Shining moment I had you, and The world mine
[Repeat chorus]
Once I ruled the earth Once upon a time When I had love That's when The world was mine When I had your love That's when The world was mine
