[Verse 1]
He can buy the love he needs
Opens doors with all his keys
Takes you where the people know
Wear it like it's yours to own
[Chorus]
Lady, when a rich man comes
Take your breath away
Burning like a million suns
Lady, walk away
[Verse 2]
Sleeps so deeply every night
Watch him like a firefly
Wonder where he's been all day
His hands are clean but he won't say
[Chorus]
Lady, when a rich man comes
Take your breath away
Burning like a million suns
Lady, walk away
[Verse 3]
He held me like a bu*terfly
In Venice where the gutters shine
I think of him 'most every day
It's not love, it's a quiet pain
[Chorus]
Lady, when a rich man comes
Take your breath away
Burning like a million suns
Lady, walk away
[Verse 4]
Barking dogs don't make a sound
You put your lover in the ground
The big old house it echoes more
Now he won't show up at all
[Chorus]
Lady, when a rich man comes
Take your breath away
Burning like a million suns
Lady, walk away
Lady, when a rich man comes...
Burning like a million suns...
[Outro]
Lady, when a rich man comes...
