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?
