Lyrics
WEALTHY MAN
You and I
We made a promise long ago
And I apologize
For all the things I couldn?t know
Now you walk in with him it?s funny
You say you?re not after money
But I know you?d take my hand
If I were a wealthy man
If I ever were a star
We?d see who you are
This is not the place
Where I had planned to be
And it hurts me even more
That you lost sight of me
No you can?t speak of your attraction
Till? you see that bank transaction
Oh I know you?d take my hand
If I were a wealthy man
If I ever were a star
We?d see who you are
