riches to rags

Riches To Rags

Caught in a war of your love, and I’m waving my white flag tall
Wanting you is just like a drug, I keep going through withdrawals
But it ain’t ever easy on me, no, you always make me relapse
Pop every pill of your love till I make my way down to the last

And I won’t swallow it down till I need you most
Wanna make sure when I do, I’m all alone
‘Cause that’s about the time I get to wanting you
Either way, I know I’m bound to overdose

Money ain’t nothing to me, baby, I want something more
‘Cause If I was rich and lonely, I’d rather be loving you poor
Love is a precious thing, and I think you ought to know so
But yours is something special I know will never grow old

And I’d give everything to be yours instead
Give you all of me till there’s nothing left
Your love is priceless, timeless as much can be
And I’d do anything just to live that dream

Well, if your love could be bought with cash
I’d give you every last penny
And trade my riches to rags

Trade my riches to rags
Turn away, and I’d never look back
You’re worth more than I’ve ever earned
My love for you will forever burn
Until my heart turns blue and black
Give you every bit of me
Until I’m a hard sight to see
Give you everything
And trade my riches and rags
