Lyrics and translation
Original
Once I knew a man in love with money.
He said it solved his worries and his cares.
But then one day,
I heard him say something I hear everywhere.
Once I knew a man in love with power.
He bought a uniform and he kept it clean.
Then one day, I heard him say, "There's something you've never seen. "
Tell him how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Tell him how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Then I knew a girl in love with living.
Didn't like to stay in one place long.
Then one day,
I heard her say she'd discovered something's wrong.
Tell her how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Tell her how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Tell her how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Tell her how to find true love and happiness in the present day.
Tell her how to find true love and happiness. . .
