You can't force someone to love you You can't buy the love you need You gotta wait until it happens And it's gotta come naturally Look at all those lonely people Who have tried it once before They suffered pain and lots of heartaches And I know they know the score You can't buy happiness with your money Not the kind that will last You must have patience with your heart Then surely love will come to pass You can be sure of what I'm sayin' I've had the same thing happen too I've loved and lost, I've suffered pain and heartaches Just like the others too And then I found someone to love me With a love like nothing else She only lives to make me happy So I'll keep her for myself La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
