If I were a moneyed human,
I would buy us our first home.
I would buy the paint and knick-knacks
to decorate it as our own.
With this imaginary wealth,
I would buy every single book
and gently place them on the shelves
that would surround our breakfast nook
If I could stay this prosperous,
I would buy the L-shaped sofa
for our beautiful living room,
with the sandalwood aroma
If I could remain affluent,
I would buy anything to showcase
how very much your love has meant
to this silly, lonely nutcase
but I am not an up-scale girl,
I have no pennies to my name
I sadly can't buy you the world
and that truth brings me so much shame
but although I'm poor in pocket,
I'm super filthy rich in love!
so please accept my deposit
I hope for now that it's enough.
