1679, hall of versailles Louis the xiv is having a party At this court of betrayers and liers Wheel of fate's gonna turn anyway Welcome to my home, again Enjoy your time And through the darkness Candles, lighten the hall Like thousands (of) dancers Reflecting on the walls Let's start the dances No one shall stand tall Midnight time, in the hall of versailles Greatest pleasure: a present for louis It's a gift from the ruler of venice Just a portrait, my daughter in it In a beating of the heart The king fell in love And through the candles Louis starts dreamin' on Dramatic fancy The king has fallen in love! Oh, Kathryn, through the candles I can see your face Oh, can't you see? My heart is bleeding, screaming for you For love or lust Feelings or passion, who knows? And through the candles Louis starts dreamin' on The king is calling Who will dare to deny?
