Money and Time

4 1 2
                                    

Tell me all about your love

The one you hold closest to you

And I'll tell you what you should know

What I have found is often true

They say that love cannot be bought

That it just does not work that way

And many would agree with this

But to that statement I will say

Yes love cannot be bought by jewels

Or by fine roses, pearls, or gold

It is not bought so easily

It is not something so controlled

But anyone you ask too knows

That money also equals time

So now I reach my final point—

It's bound up in a single rhyme—

If you love someone very much

Then maybe ask yourself today

If they want something that's store bought,

Or maybe just the time of day
