(with Diana King)
|
|
In every heart, there is a drum that beats
|
Steady and strong, it does not know defeat
|
I feel it pound, and know the sound
|
Of true beliefs
|
In every soul, there is a memory
|
Of standing tall, the proudest we could be
|
I cannot fall, for I recall
|
We were born in majesty
|
|
And when the long fight, has been fought and won
|
We'll stand in the sun
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And we will raise out hands
|
And we will touch the sky
|
Together we will dance in robes of gold
|
And we will leave the world remembering
|
When we were kings, when we were kings
|
|
Now is the time, here is the mountain top
|
When one man climbs, the rest are lifted up
|
With every step we're closer yet
|
To a higher destiny
|
|
And when we reach out to claim the thrown
|
Every man will know
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Do you remember
|
When we were kings
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
|
|
And when the long fight, has been fought and won
|
We'll stand in the sun
|
|
[Chorus]
|
