If I Were King by Tony Carey Lyrics

If I were king of this whole world
I'd throw my arms around you girl
And change your birthday to a holiday
If I were leader of this place

I'd move the stars to frame your face
I'd make believe
That you had never gone away
But you went away

And I don't think I'll ever be king
You'll never come back home
You'll never take this ring
And I will live here all alone

I'll never be king
You'll never come home
You'll never take this ring
And I will go on all alone
All alone
If I were king of all I see
I'd take you everywhere with me
I'd show you places that you'd never seen before
But that's not how we play this game
All I offer is my name
And all I'll tell you are the things that lovers say
For evermore

But I don't think I'll ever be king
You'll never come back home
You'll never take this ring
And I will live here all alone

I'll never be king
You'll never come home
You'll never take this ring
And I will go on all alone
All alone

If I were someone in command
I'd give a kingdom for your hand
I'd make damn certain that you never got away
If I were king
