I haven't been on here in a long while, its been a crazy summer and I've only just found the time to get writing again. This was just an idea I had, it's hit me lately how much money can change people. So I wrote about it. Let me know what you think!

VERSE 1:
You could give me all the money in the world if you wanted
But buying me a diamond ring won’t solve it.
You could offer me a million shiny things,
But it wouldn’t come close to you.

VERSE 2:
You could buy a boat and sail back to me,
But you’re head’s still going to be out at sea,
You’ve fallen crazy in love with the cash in your wallet,
And now I’m drifting away from you.

PRE-CHORUS:
Listen up, hear me
I think it’s time,
So why…why...why?

CHORUS:
You could just maybe,
Go back home and see
That all those memories
Are worth more than you think…
Paper is not…
Everything

VERSE 3:
You could give me all the love that you wanted,
But you wouldn’t know how, only money solves problems.
I could offer you my everything,
But you would still be hungry.

VERSE 4:
You couldn’t buy my love for nothing,
I don’t do bribery.
You’re sinking way down deep,
Expectations of green.

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
It’s up to you,
But right now we’re through.
It’s going to hit you hard someday,
Money won’t see you through.

Listen up, hear me
I think it’s time,
So why…why...why?

You could just maybe,
Go back home and see
That all those memories
Are worth more thank you think...
Paper is not…
Everything
You cannot buy…
Me

i love the chorus, the lyrics are good even with their cliches,

Love the sentiment behind the song. Some pretty good lyrics including a strong pre-chorus and even stronger chorus. Very simply yet very aptly said!
