lyrics

Sex, Love or Money (R. Harcourt)

It’s not very often I fall for a man
But he was so awesome, I never did land
The problem you see, was that he loved me too
But our hands were quite tied, I was married and true

The pain of restraint was wearing me down
My very best friend, she came around
I confided in her every day sometimes until dawn
While secretly she and my man were getting it on

CHORUS
You can trust your friends, put your heart in their hands
You can trust your friends, until sex, love or money...
makes them blow like the wind

My lover of ten good years left me one day
Our future unclear, we had so much to say
I talked to a friend, said we just needed time
The next thing I know they’re in love and off drinking wine

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE siren vox

I’ve lived enough years to know what people will do
They consider their cardinal needs, not you
After having endured the pain of all that is fair
I will never betray the trust I’ve come to hold dear

You can trust me friend, put your heart in my hands
You can trust me friend, I’m with you ‘til the end
You can trust me friend, put your heart in my hands
You can trust me friend, until sex, love or money...
makes me blow like the wind
