Sake of Money

For the sake of money For the sake of money For the sake of money She is waiting in the dining room It's half-past eight and the pasta hasn't touched the spoon Although she's angry cause he didn't call There's worry she's trying to drown with alcohol A car in the driveway at precisely a quarter to ten He said "I'll be home at eight, promise I ain't late" Those words are poppin' up in her head while the door unlocks No matter what he says I won't give in this time There's gotta be a change or I will leave Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to work so hard? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to work overtime? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to lie to me? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to put our love on the line? He is working hard to pursue his career Wondering why the love of his life disappeared Even the moment she was packing her bags He missed the forest for the trees and thought she'll soon be back Three months ticked away, his assumption proves to be wrong He starts to imagine a life without her by his side All the money in the world can't substitute her saying "love you good night" No matter what she says I'm gonna call her up There's gotta be a chance to say what I feel Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to hurt me so bad? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to play the game? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to stay away? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to put our love on the line? She said, don't let life pass by due to hurry It ain't always for the sake of money We all know that money's necessary But sometimes we got more than we need so Maybe re-set the course of your life It ain't always for the sake of money Money sure rules the whole wide world So don't let it rule your heart Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to worry again? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to eat by yourself? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to, do you need to sleep alone? For the sake of money Do you need to, do you need to put our love on the line?
