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