CHORUS
I don’t want your mansion on the hill,
No, I don’t want to taste that bitter pill.
There’s nothing else in this world I’d rather do,
I just want to be with you.

Your dad is rich, and your mother’s in control,
I know they think, I am digging for your gold.
But all I want is one minute of your time,
Every minute of the day.

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

I may be poor, but I have a heart of gold,
And that is one thing that can’t be bought and sold.
I make this promise that no matter where or how,
I will steal your heart away.

CHORUS
‘Cos I don’t want your mansion on the hill, 
(No, I don’t care…)
No, I don’t want to taste that bitter pill. 
(I won’t go there…)
There’s nothing else in this world I’d rather do, 
(You know it’s true…)
I just want to be with you.

BRIDGE
Don’t even care for your island in the sun, 
(No, I don’t care…)
Don’t want to chase false passion on the run. 
(I won’t go there…)
There’s nothing else in this world I’d rather do, 
(You know it’s true…)
I just want to be with you.

LAST CHORUS
I don’t want your mansion on the hill,
No, I don’t want to taste that bitter pill.
There’s nothing else in this world I’d rather do,
I just want to be with you.
I just want to be with you.
I just want to be with you.
