Story Behind The Song
If I had a dime for every time you said you'd never leave me
I would be a wealthy man but my heart would still be empty
If I spent my last red cent tryin' to get you to stay
I would be the broken man that you see here today
Chorus
Money can't buy love
I was a fool the day I met you
Thought that buying things was the only way to get you
Money can't buy love

Lyrics
Money Can't Buy Love - c2009 Kevin Keough BMI
1st Verse
If I had a dime for every time you said you'd never leave me
I would be a wealthy man but my heart would still be empty
If I spent my last red cent tryin' to get you to stay
I would be the broken man that you see here today
Chorus
Money can't buy love
I was a fool the day I met you
Thought that buying things was the only way to get you
Money can't buy love
2nd Verse
If I had the time to make you mine and start over again
I would give you every day even if it were my last one
'Cause the time that you were here, all you wanted was my love
Now I've opened up to you
Now I understand
Double Chorus
Money can't buy love
I was a fool the day I met you
Thought that buying things was the only way to get you
Money can't buy love
In the end you wanted love
It's the finest thing in life
And now I know
Money can't buy love
Bridge
Double Chorus
