I Can Buy You
[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I wanna buy you a home
I'll pay your friends if you're feeling alone
The pain of losing a guy like you
Is a bigger cost than paying your dues

[Chorus 1]
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

[Verse 2]
You say, I'd never go for a little
And I always need more
And you're a thousand dollar playboy
That I just can't afford

[Pre-Chorus 2]
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 bet your life that it's with me you belong
[Chorus 2]
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

[Bridge]
So if I can't make you love me
If I can't make you care
What price 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 a fortune, it's with me you belong

[Chorus 2]
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

[Outro]
I can't take you there anymore
