Original lyrics
ENColumbus took a chance
And I would take a chance
As long as there's a moon up above
But I don't want to make history
I just want to make love
Napoleon took a chance
But when I think of France
It's Josephine that I'm thinking of
Cause I don't want to make history
I just want to make love
We all can't be heroes
We all can't be great
Right now I'll settle for a love affair,
And the dickens with affairs of state
I hear a call to arms
But sentimental arms
My banner is the moon up above
For I don't want to make history
I just want to make love
