There’s history in my smile
That glows like stars, so bright
Filled with stories, laughter, and secrets
That helps me through the night
Memories of sunny days
Warm me to the bone
Times that we all spent together
Remind me I’m never alone
I built my empire
In the hearts of all my friends
Put my hope in those I love so dear
Trusting our bond will never end
They make me feel like a king
Wreathed in their warm embrace
Praised by their adoring gaze
And blessed by their humble grace
We spend our days doing what we love
No care for what the future holds
Happy just to be together
Because to us that’s better than gold
And with all of you is where I’m meant to be
Because you mean so much to me
A simple smile sends me flying high
We’ll stay together ‘til the day I die
I built my empire
In the hearts of all my friends
Put my hope in those I love so dear
Trusting our bond will never end
They make me feel like a king
Wreathed in their warm embrace
Praised by their adoring gaze
And blessed by their humble grace
I stand with the power of thousands
Built up by those with confidence
In me
In my ability
I shine with the light of the rising sun
Bringing joy into the life of
Everyone
Those I love
I built my empire
In the hearts of all my friends
Put my hope in those I love so dear
Trusting our bond will never end
They make me feel like a king
Wreathed in their warm embrace
Praised by their adoring gaze
And blessed by their humble grace
