[Verse 1]
As the world goes round
We re all hoping to find that special one
But all those romance books, Hollywood movies, and love songs
Have been having us all
[Pre-chorus]
Cause right now, honey
Love don t mean a thing
Yeah it s all sex and money
The antidote I bring to you
[Chorus]
The truth, I fear, is somewhat bleaker
Your heart gets tired
Your hope grows weaker
And if you re lucky you end up with someone you don t hate
And if I can t just quite believe this
You re the reason, make me see that
Maybe baby you and I aren t ed after all
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
As the lights go down and maybe if you stick around
You might be surprised
I want to wake you in the morning
And maybe I won t be so anesthetised
[Pre-chorus]
Cause right now, honey
Love don t mean a thing
Yeah it s all sex and money
The antidote I bring to you
[Chorus]
The truth, I fear, is somewhat bleaker
Your heart gets tired
Your hope grows weaker
And if you re lucky you end up with someone you don t hate
And if I can t just quite believe this
You re the reason, make me see that
Maybe baby you and I aren t ed after all
[Outro]
