For the one that i've lost,
Boundaries i've crossed,
An empire that would never fall
I took his side,
With passion and pride,
It seems I have gambled it all,
For love
He's just a man,
I've loved just the man,
A feeling now hard to recall
The Gods turned away,
Their game for the day,
Amazed I have squandered it all,
For love
Into a woman's eyes you pledged
The prize that she was dreaming of,
But to the ancient throne
Whose might is mine alone,
Vows are not enough,
All for love
Pharaoh of Egypt,
The ships are coming,
The troops have landed,
They're pounding at the walls
Fair Queen of Egypt,
Don't bow to Ceasar,
«But grace you him,
Who has lost the world for love»
