Verse 1
Early morning on the porch swing, counting bills with tangled pride
Empty laughter, golden trophies, but no one by my side
Tried to fill the silence buying every passing thrill
But the clock keeps ticking lonely and it always will
Pre-Chorus
Every dollar fades to memory, every treasure loses shine
But the sweetest thing comes softly, in a heart that’s truly kind
Chorus
You can spend it all on diamonds, silver, and wine
Fill your pockets to the ceiling, keep your heart in line
But that feeling you are chasing, it slips right through your hand
Money buys a moment, but love you gotta understand
Post-Chorus
Oh, love is free, love is free
Verse 2
Watched the hours on the highway, watched the years go by so fast
All the things you thought you needed, never meant to last
Bought a ticket for some laughter that faded with the dawn
But the warmth in someone's arms is what you're leaning on
Pre-Chorus
Just like the shifting shore, nothing gold can stay
What fills your soul can’t be bought, no matter what you pay
Chorus
You can spend it all on diamonds, silver, and wine
Fill your pockets to the ceiling, keep your heart in line
But that feeling you are chasing, it slips right through your hand
Money buys a moment, but love you gotta understand
Post-Chorus
Oh, love is free, love is free
Bridge
All the velvet in your wallet, every pretty thing you find
Can't replace the steady comfort of a hand in yours at night
You can't trade your deepest secret for a gentle, steady gaze
It's the giving not the riches that can lead you through the days
Chorus
You can spend it all on diamonds, silver, and wine
Fill your pockets to the ceiling, keep your heart in line
But that feeling you are chasing, it slips right through your hand
Money buys a moment, but love you gotta understand
Post-Chorus
Oh, love is free, love is free
Oh, love is free, love is free
