She walked away, without a tear, Leaving me with nothing but my fears. She chose the gold, the shining lights, While I stayed here, lost in the night. I gave her all I had to give, But she wanted more than I could live. A heart so rich, a love so pure, But the money’s what she was looking for. She chose the riches, not the heart, Left me alone, torn apart. Gold over love, it’s all the same, Now I'm just a memory, lost in the game. She wanted more than I could ever be, And now she’s gone, and it’s just me. She said she'd stay, but not for long, Her love was weak, but the money was strong. I thought we had it, something real, But she traded love for something I couldn’t steal. I gave her all I had to give, But she wanted more than I could live. A heart so rich, a love so pure, But the money’s what she was looking for. She chose the riches, not the heart, Left me alone, torn apart. Gold over love, it’s all the same, Now I'm just a memory, lost in the game. She wanted more than I could ever be, And now she’s gone, and it’s just me. The mansion she lives in, so cold, I’m here alone, but I still hold, The memory of what we could’ve been, But money came between the love within.
