I'd rather live my life with you
And with you share a home
Than to be a king of a vast domain
And reign on a golden throne

To share the thrill of a goodnight kiss
Will dim the values of things I've missed
I'd rather live my life with you
Than to reign on a golden throne

I'd rather live my life with you
And toil the long years through
Than to share the wealth of a dozen worlds
Yet starved for the woman in you

I'll not complain if our lot is small
We'll forge ahead though the shadows fall
I'd rather live my life with you
Than to reign on a golden throne
