Now the love I used to have just left me cold
I used to buy her everything from diamonds to gold
At first I thought she'd left me 'cause I didn't buy her enough
But then she left me a note along with all my stuff
Said "Maybe one of these days you'll have to learn
That love is something that you gotta earn
And once you earn it gotta know how to keep it
You got to want it as well as you need it"
To have lost love was a hurtin' lesson
But to have had love was a definite blessing
And I know what the Beatles were thinking of
When they said that money can't buy me love
