a life of sanity and dignity
you know it takes two
and what's the use in being a millionaire
if i can't have you
i wanna buy you... a home
i'll pay your friends if you're feeling alone
the pain of losing a guy like you
it's a bigger cost than paying your dues

i can buy you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you do what you don't
and i can hire you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you love me
i can't make you

you say i never go for little
and i always need more
and you're a thousand dollar playboy
that i just can't afford
but i guess you got me oh oh
you got me hanging around for too long
i don't wanna stop it oh no oh no
i bought you a life and it's with me you belong

i can buy you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you do what you don't
and i can hire you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you love me
i can't make you care

so if i can't make you love me
if i can't make you care
what prize can take me there
in this world?
somebody told me cash is king
i didn't mean to force you oh no
but i bet you fortune it's with me you belong

and i can buy you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you do what you don't
and i can hire you oh yeah oh yeah
but i can't make you love me
i can't make you care
i can't take you there
anymore
