My darling, all around us people clamor
They're striving for the thing they'll never own
The only thing that hasn't lost its glamor
Is love and love alone
What does it matter if we're rich or we're poor?
Fortune and fame, they never endure
For love is the thing, love is the thing
What good is money if your heart isn't light?
And here in your arms, I'm wealthy tonight
When youth has its fling, love is the thing
While others fight for power
We can walk among the flowers
Knowing that the best thing in life is the thing that is free
Love, for you and me
And even though our castles crumble and fall
We have the right to laugh at them all
For love is still king, love is the thing
While others fight for power
We can walk among the flowers
Knowing that the best thing in life is the thing that is free
Love, for you and me
And even though our castles crumble and fall
We have the right to laugh at them all
For love is still king, love is the thing
