More For Us
(Intro: Queen Daniela & Prince Luca, spoken)
Luca, do you understand that
The world is a very dangerous place?
I wish I could protect you forever
But I know you'll make a great King one day...
I just want you to find somebody
That can always be be your side when I can't
You might not understand this right now
But I'm doing what I know what's right for you
Yes, Mom
Hey. Look me in the eyes
You know I love you, right?
I know, Mom
(Verse 1: Prince Luca)
Is it true supposed to set you free?
But why do I feel so weighed down by you?
If I could show them everything I've seen
Open their eyеs to all the lies then
Would thеy change their minds like I did?
But when I speak they tell me to "Sit down."
But how can I when I've already started running?
Oh, this is where we've been, but it's not where we belong
And I may be young, but I know I'm not wrong
(Chorus: Prince Luca)
So I look up at the stars to guide me
And throw caution to every warning sign
If knowing what it could be is what drives me
Then let me be the first to stand in line
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than this
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than... this!
Hey-yaaa!
Hey-yaaaaaa!
More than this, oh no!
(Verse 2: Rogue Thief Alberto)
I never knew I needed room to grow
Yeah, I did what I was told
Cause someone told me "No."
Now I got all of this freedom in my bones
But I still got the lid on so it doesn't overflow
Cause I've got reservations and hesitations
On where I should even begin!
I'm past dipping my toes in, but I'm not, no
I'm not past diving in!
If I can just be pointed in any given direction
On where to go and what to do
My legs are shaking but my head's held high
The way you always taught me to
(Chorus: Prince Luca & Rogue Thief Alberto)
So I look up at the stars to guide me
And throw caution to every warning sign
I'm sure there will be challenges that find me
But I can take them on one at a time!
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than this
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than... this!
Hey-yaaa! Hey-yaaaaaa!
More than this, oh!
(Outro: Prince Luca)
So I make this wish
To have something more for us than this!
