Sure, it's cool to get showered with gifts from someone, but wouldn't you rather spend time with that person than with the objects they give you?

lyrics

You say you're busy
I know I'm not your priority
Every time you walk out that door
You take my heart from me
All the gracious gifts you give to remind me of you
I’d give them all away, just for you stay 

Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time

I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind 

You say you love me, but
Your goodbyes leave me high and dry
You want to give me the world
But I want you by my side
All the things I hold on to remind me of you
I’d give them all away, just for you stay

Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time

I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind

Your time is worth much more to me
Then big and shiny flashy things
So baby just hold me tight

Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind
