I Want That Love (Money Can’t Buy)
R&B / Hip-Hop inspired, emotional, melodic vibe with ad-libs
Intro
(Ooooh, yeah)
(Ayy, ayy)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Love me right… mmh…
Verse 1
I don’t need the diamonds, I don’t need the fame
I done seen people switch up for a little bit of change
I just need somebody that’s gon’ stay the same
When the lights go out, still call my name
When I’m feelin’ low, when I’m feelin’ weak
Need somebody standin’ ten toes next to me
Not just when it’s easy, not just for a week
Need a real one that believes in me
Pre-Chorus
I don’t want a love that’s based on what you got
I don’t want a love that’s gone when times get hard
I want somethin’ deeper, somethin’ from the heart
Yeah, that’s the part…
Chorus
I want that type of love that money can’t buy
That protection, that affection, ride or die
Somebody hold me down when I’m losin’ my mind
(Ooh, yeah, yeah)
I want that type of love that money can’t buy
The kind that prays for me and wipes my eyes
Somebody who gon’ choose me every time
(Ayy, every time, yeah)
Verse 2
I don’t need a mansion if the house ain’t got peace
I don’t need designer if your love too cheap
Give me honesty, loyalty, keep it real with me
That’s worth more than anything money could be
Cause these days everybody chasin’ clout
But I need somebody I ain’t gotta worry ‘bout
When the world gets cold and the rain falls down
Need somebody sayin’, “Baby, I got you now”
Pre-Chorus
I don’t want a love that’s here today, gone tomorrow
Need somebody stayin’ through the joy and the sorrow
I ain’t askin’ for perfection, just a heart I can follow
Yeah…
Chorus
I want that type of love that money can’t buy
That protection, that affection, ride or die
Somebody hold me down when I’m losin’ my mind
(Ooh, yeah, yeah)
I want that type of love that money can’t buy
The kind that prays for me and wipes my eyes
Somebody who gon’ choose me every time
(Every time, every time)
Bridge
Late nights, hard days, we can work it out
No matter what they say, we ain’t walkin’ out
Real love, real trust, that’s what I’m about
(Ayy, yeah, yeah)
Cause all the money in the world can’t replace
A safe place, warm embrace, somebody who stays
When everybody leaves, you still remain
That’s the love I’m prayin’ for every day
Outro
I want that type of love…
(The love money can’t buy)
That protection, that real connection
(Ooooh, yeah)
I want that type of love…
(Ayy, ayy)
The kind that lasts forever… yeah. ❤️🎵
