in my heart

I wish there was more that I could offer
but all I have cannot be bought or sold
I have nothing to add to your coffer
but I know I can keep you safe from the cold

refrain: but if you were hoping for a windfall
then I will have to ask you to depart
I can't support your vices at the mall
cause the only gold I have is in my heart

l believe that money can't buy love
I felt that ever since I was a child
the heavens opened my heart from above
the moment when I first saw your sweet smile

refrain

If I wanted to be wealthy I'd have been
all by my lonesome, but it's not my goal
If I had one chance to begin again
I'd still prefer to edify my soul

refrain

though I hope to win your heart someday
I can only get to there with your consent
if you could try to meet me halfway
then I would make your sweet heart feel content

cause I was never looking for a windfall
and I hope that was apparent from the start
if you want to feel rewarded you can call
to claim the gold I have here in my heart
