Billy Joel - Money or Love lyrics

One-two-three-four

Money or love
Which one are you doing it for?
Everybody has to make that choice sometime
You know something is wrong
I can tell the feeling is gone
Do you still remember when
We started long ago?

Wasn't it love that kept us all
Driving in a rented car?
Who could've known that endless road would
Ever have come this far?

Money or love
It's your decision where to draw the line
Everybody has a soul they
Can control or compromise
When did you start putting a price
Upon the pain in your heart?
When did I become the reason for
The sadness in your eyes?
You could've asked me anytime
I would've told you why
Maybe I might have changed your mind
But now it's too late to try goodbye

Often I have asked myself
Could I have been closer to you
When you needed someone else
Could a friend who really knew
You try help you decide

Money or love
Tell me what ya gonna do with your life?
Everybody needs a passion or they
Cash in while they can make up your mind
Before you realize you've run out of time
You need a reason why
You've got to justify to make your stand

You could've asked me anytime
I would've told you why
Maybe I might never change your mind
But now it's too late to try goodbye

Money or love

Wasn't it love that kept us all
Driving in a rented car?
Who could've known that endless road would
Ever have come this far?
Was it money or love? Money or love?
Was it money or love? Money or love?
Money or love? Money or love? Money or love?
Was it money or love? Was it
Money or love? Was it love?
