歌词

There once was a kingdom far, far away
Where love was the rule of the day
Nothing more, nothing less
Then to give your friend your best
There's much more story that I could tell
To make the hardest hearts swell
This is the story
When love was king
When love was king
Do you remember when love was king?
When love was king
I remember, oh, when love was king
He ruled the land with his fist unfurled
With open arms for the world
Of hungry children, first he'd think
To pull their lives from the brink
When love was king
He'd rescued souls that were lost in the sea
In drifting vessels, he would hear their plea
He threw a line before they'd sink
And then he gave the thirsty ones a drink
When love was king
He told the meek that they should try
To use the sword to smite the lie
The lie that being kind is for the weak
I pray the Lord these words we seek, oh-oh
When love was king
He showed respect for every man
Regardless of his skin and clan
And beside him stood his mighty queen
An equal force, wise and keen
He lifted up the people that were on the underneath
And all his wealth he did bequeath
To those who toiled without a gain
So they would remember his reign, oh
So, seek some place to call your own
Right beside this mighty shining throne
When love was king, oh
Do you remember
Do you remember when love was king?
