Queen for a day
They'll call me queen for a day
And every day of my life
If that life is with you
In clover out of the past
We'll find the hope there will last
And every moment that's passed
Has a fine future too
And if we're asked
What of the present tense, my dear
We'll say it's common sense, it's clear
The portal's peeking through
How I love you
How I love you
And I love you
Patiently
Queen for the night
Not just a fling but a flight
Where everything will come right
In my kingdom with you
Ba da dun da dum..
(Queen for a day
They'll call me queen for a day
And every day of my life
If that life is with you

We'll find the hope there will last
And every moment that's passed
Has a fine future too)
And if we're asked
What of the present tense, my dear
We'll say it's common sense, it's clear
The portal's peeking through
How I love you
(How I love you)
How I love you
(How I love you)
And I love you
(I love you)
Patiently (Ooh)
Queen for a day
They'll call a queen's holiday
Where every monarch holds sway
In our kingdom for two
Queen for the night
Not just a fling but a flight
Where everything will come right
(The queen..)
In my kingdom with you
Ba da da da da da da dum
Queen for a day
Although they may be passé
But every queen has her day
And that day is with you
