I Can Buy You

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
