[Verse 1]
Wandering deserts all alone
Only in my dreams I've known
There's a place I can call home
Beyond my reach so far

[Chorus]
If I were king of this old world
I'd fix the endless bickering
And stop the ways of the unkind
Help the sick and try and cure the blind
Speaking of the king of love

[Verse 2]
Well, the noise and confusion are such a mess
The money and greed just gives us less
But I'm just the man to change that song
To write new words, to right all wrongs
Speaking of the king of love (The king of love)
Ain't no need to bow or kiss the ring
You don't need to worry 'bout anything
Just take this love that I'm offering to you, yes, you

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Ain't no need to bow or kiss the ring
Don't need to worry 'bout anything
Just take this love that I'm offering to you, yes, you

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
If I were king of this old world
I'd fix the endless suffering
Smash to bits the war machine
A call for peace with my queen
Speaking of the king of love
He can give you the stars up above (The king of love)
All the things that you've been dreaming of (The king of love)
Here's to the king, the king of love
