Love versus Money

Sad Love Song — “Love or Money”

Verse 1

I came in with my heart wide open

No games, no lies, just hoping

You smiled at me like I was enough

But love got lost inside your stuff

I gave my time, my care, my days

Tried to love you in a thousand ways

But when the shine began to fade

So did the promises we made

Pre-Chorus

I started asking what went wrong

Was my heart weak, or my money not strong?

Chorus

Was it love… or was it money?

Did you want me… or something from me?

I gave you roses, I gave you rings

You were counting all the things

Now I’m sitting here alone

With a heart that feels like stone

Tell me, baby, honestly…

Was it love, or was it money?

Verse 2

You said forever, you said always

But forever changed in a few days

The moment I slowed down to breathe

You found a reason just to leave

I didn’t see it, I didn’t know

That love don’t work like a bank account flow

I thought the heart was what you see

But you were looking past me

Pre-Chorus

Now I’m learning through the pain

Love and money don’t feel the same

Chorus

Was it love… or was it money?

Did you want me… or something from me?

I gave you roses, I gave you rings

You were counting all the things

Now I’m sitting here alone

With a heart that feels like stone

Tell me, baby, honestly…

Was it love, or was it money?

Bridge (soft, emotional)

Maybe love is real somewhere

Just not in what we had there

Maybe I was blind to see

You never really wanted me

Final Chorus (stronger emotion)

Was it love… or was it money?

Did you feel me… or just use me?

I gave my heart, you took the shine

Left me with these scars of mine

Now I finally see the truth

Love don’t live where money moves

Outro (very soft)

Next time I fall, I’ll make it clear…

Do you want my heart… or what I bring here…
