I'm a rich man... When I'm next to you. Yeah, I'm a rich man... When I'm next to you. Yeah Mad House [Verse 1] I don't need diamonds, I don't need gold, Don't need a mansion just to call it home. Don't need a yacht on an endless blue, Or a thousand things I could never take with me. I could chase every dollar till my heart turns cold, Stack every fortune till I'm growing old, But what good is a kingdom if I'm standing alone? I'd trade every treasure just to hear you say, “I'm coming home.” [Pre-Chorus] I might never see a billion in my name, But standing beside you, I got everything. [Chorus] I feel like a rich man when I'm next to you, Like there's money in the bank That I'm never gonna lose. Don't need the cars, don't need the clothes, Don't need a palace just to know What a heart full of love is worth. Take it all away, let it go, let it go, If I've got you, I'm richer than the world. I may not have a fortune to my name, But I'm a rich man when I'm next to you. [Verse 2] We don't need reservations underneath the stars, Or a penthouse view above the boulevard. Give me your hand and a little bit of time, And suddenly this ordinary life feels divine. 'Cause money can buy a bed, but it can't buy rest, It can buy a house, but it can't make it home. It can buy a diamond, but it can't make love last, And it can't put a heartbeat beside your own. [Pre-Chorus] So let the world keep counting what it owns, I've already found the greatest wealth I've known. [Chorus] I feel like a rich man when I'm next to you, Like there's money in the bank That I'm never gonna lose. Don't need the cars, don't need the clothes, Don't need a palace just to know What a heart full of love is worth. Take it all away, let it go, let it go, If I've got you, I'm richer than the world. I may not have a fortune to my name, But I'm a rich man when I'm next to you. [Bridge] If tomorrow took the house we built, If every dollar disappeared, If all I had was this hand in mine, I wouldn't have a thing to fear. 'Cause I've learned the greatest wealth Isn't something you can hold— It's waking up beside the one You'd choose again when you're old. [Final Chorus] I feel like a rich man when I'm next to you, Like I struck gold the day I found you. No bank could ever hold What your heart has given me, No fortune could ever buy What you mean to me. So take the diamonds, take the gold, Take every mansion that the world can show. Let it all go, let it go, let it go— I've got something money will never know. I might never be a billionaire, But baby, I don't care. 'Cause if I get to spend this life with you, I'm already richer than I'll ever need to be. I'm a rich man... When I'm next to you. Yeah, I'm a rich man... When I'm next to you. Yeah Mad House
