king for a day lyrics

So listen, love is all we need, love is all

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away for loving you

I know you well and I can tell
Something's on your mind
'Cos in your dreams the demon screams
I know he's going to hurt you blind

Some people hunger
For fame and fortune all their lives
Saddest fools, in paradise

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away for loving you
If I was king for just one day

Diamond rings and all those things
They never sparkle like your smile
And as for fame it's just a name
Only satisfies you for a while

Some people hunger
For fame and fortune all their lives
The saddest fools, in paradise

I've heard it said or maybe read
Only money makes the world go 'round
But all the gold won't heal your soul
If your world should tumble to the ground

Oh, some people hunger
For fame and fortune all their lives
The saddest fools in paradise

So listen, love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need

Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away for loving you

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away for loving you
If I was king for just one day
Just one thing to say, love
