When The World Was Mine

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 CHORUS 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
