There's nothing that I would not do
To show the world how I love you
I'll build a castle on the moon
We'll only eat with golden spoons
(I really like my happy life
You want a trophy not a wife)
I'll slay a dragon with a stick
I'll feed the world and cure the sick
I'll put the sun inside a jar
I'll carve your name upon a star
(You think you're such a gallant guy
Have you read the Nymph's Reply?)
I'll dig for diamonds with my hands
I'll walk across the desert sands
I'll climb a mountain for your heart
I'll buy the greatest works of art
(I'm really just a simple girl
I like sunsets more than pearls)
I'll search the skies and tame the sea
To demonstrate sincerity
I beg and beg on bended knee
But you never hear my plea
(Won't you listen? Can't you see?
You never did a thing for me)
