A fancy car won’t get you far
When you’re on your own
The pretty clothes won’t help you most
When you’re all alone
I came to find I wasted time on all them silly things
I couldn’t buy the peace of mind that only love can bring
So you better wise up (wise up)
Cause our love (our love)
Is all that (all that)
We got (we got)
Fame or clout won’t bail you out when the chips are down
Cause after that who’s got your back if no one hangs around?
If not for love I would’ve given up so many times before
Open up your heart now baby, it’s knocking at the door.
(I love you)
(I love you)
(Wise up)
(Our love)
(All that)
(We got)
(I love you)
(I love you)
So you better wise up (wise up)
Cause our love (our love)
Is all that (all that)
We got (we got)
