Whatever you say would go,
we'd go to Tokyo
and if you got bored there,
we'd go to Rio.
Now don't you be ashamed,
just have some more Champagne,
Why did I ever fall in love with you?

We were riding round in Limousines
and reading Paris magazines
Deciding what you're wearing tonight.
Why do you why do you
why do you have to marry him?
Just because he's royalty?

Sunlight on snowy mountains
All of the Alps to ski
Or on your own private island
In the Aegean sea
It won't bring you back to me
Visions and memories

The last time I saw you you were
Chartering a jet to carry
the aristocracy to marry
someone who you'd barely met before
You! Why do you why do you have to marry him
you know what your mama said
she said "Daddy says you
shouldn't ought to marry such a bounder
because love will only flounder in
the dregs of his endless romances

I could be loving you
and I could be squeezing you
and you would belong to me
and I would belong to you
but things don't work out that way
I'm just watching your parade
watching the masquerade.

Now it's not a question
of a kind of morality
and it's not a question
of a sense of loyalty
But this is how it will be
Married to royalty.

And now I'm riding on an endless cruise
and drinking large amounts of booze
Did you know that you ruined my life?
