The world, promise me the world And every dream I'm dreaming of The moon, (what would the moon mean) I do not want the moon, (who needs a moon beam) Or,--- every star that shines above (What would the stars bring) The world,--- I don't want the world (How nice it would be,) But please, promise me anything, but give me love (To own a big dream) I know that I could be happy with a love from you But all that you ever give me are promisses that never come true.
