I Will Buy You A New Life

(앨범: So Much For The Afterglow - 1997)

Here is the money that I owe you
So you can pay the bills
I will give you more when I get paid again
I hate those people who love to tell you
Money is the root of all that kills
They have never been poor
They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas

Yeah
I know we will never look back
Yeah, ah

You say you wake up crying
Yes and you don't know why
You get up and you go lay down inside my baby's room
Yeah I guess I'm doing OK
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive

I will buy you a garden, where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
Yes I will

Yes I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the times before
With that obsessive little rich boy
They might make you think you're happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can't make you laugh
No they can't make you feel the way that I do

I will buy you a garden, where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life, yeah
I will buy you a new life, oh
Yeah

Oh I know we can never look back
Yeah, oh
Will you please let me stay the night
Will you please let me stay the night
No one will ever know
Yeah yeah

Oh I will buy you a garden, where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life, oh yeah

I will buy you a garden, where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life, yeah
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life...
