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