It never rained, the

Sun was always shining

Every traffic light

Was always green

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 mind

I was flying higher

Than the Heavens

Back when the

World was mine

Sometimes a man can't see

When he has it all

Take a look at me

Oh how he mighty fall

Once I ruled the 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 much

And be so blind

But at least for

A bright and

Shining moment

I had you, and

The world was mine

Sometimes a man can't see

When he has it all

Take a look at me

Oh how he mighty fall

Once I ruled the earth

Once upon a time

When I had your love

When the world was mine

Once I ruled the earth

Once upon a time

When I had your love

That's when

The world was mine

When I had your love

That's when

The world was mine
