Helena & Petroff: To a kingdom, to a kingdom, to a kingdom of our own,
Some day away,
We'll hie, you and I,
Fly, you and I,
To a love spot to a dove cot,
Where we'll live and love alone.
We'll rule the land,
Where sunshine ever beams,
And hand in hand
We'll dream the lover's dreams.
In a kingdom of our own,
With little Cupid on the throne,
Petroff: With a Prince and Princess on my knee;
Helena: You'll be as happy as a king can be,
Both: Ev'ry afternoon at three
We'll sit and sip our royal tea.
Petroff: I'll be the K-I-N-G then,
Helena: I'll be the Q-U double-E-N,
Both: And we'll live and love alone,
So H-A-P-P-Y we'll be
In the kingdom of our own.
In a kingdom of our own,
With little Cupid on the throne,
Petroff: With a Prince and Princess on my knee;
Helena: You'll be as happy as a king can be,
Both: Ev'ry afternoon at three
We'll sit and sip our royal tea.
Petroff: I'll be the K-I-N-G then,
Helena: I'll be the Q-U double-E-N,
Both: And we'll live and love alone,
So H-A-P-P-Y we'll be
In the kingdom of our own.
   
Both: To a kingdom, to a kingdom, to a kingdom of our own,
Some day away,
From all of the crowd,
No one allowed,
On a love spot to a dove cot,
Where there'll be no telephone.
We'll rule the land,
Where happiness is real,
No King's command,
No words of wicked steel.
In a kingdom of our own,
With little Cupid on the throne,
Petroff: With a Prince and Princess on my knee;
Helena: You'll be as happy as a king can be,
Both: Ev'ry afternoon at three
We'll sit and sip our royal tea.
Petroff: I'll be the K-I-N-G then,
Helena: I'll be the Q-U double-E-N,
Both: And we'll live and love alone,
So H-A-P-P-Y we'll be
In the kingdom of our own.
In a kingdom of our own,
